I'm working a night shift from 3:00 PM to 12:00 AM, and I've been having this issue where my breathing stops while I'm asleep. When I wake up in the morning, I end up vomiting, and there's also this white spit. It's honestly quite worrying, and I could really use some advice on what's going on here. Any insights would be appreciated.

How is emphysema diagnosed?

Chest X ray and Arterial blood gas

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I'm trying to understand my recent x-ray results which mentioned 'right apical PTB of undetermined activity.' I'm a bit concerned because I did a sputum test and it came back negative for TB bacteria. Also, I have no TB symptoms and the last time I had this disease was 14 years ago. Could this be something serious? What should I be looking out for?

The X-ray result indicates a past, likely healed, tuberculosis (TB) infection in your right lung, with "undetermined activity" suggesting no current active infection, which is supported by your negative sputum test and lack of symptoms.

I got my x-ray results and it says there's a blunted left CP angle with pleural thickening. Should I be worried about any serious disease? What should I do next? Would really appreciate some guidance!
