I've been a bit worried because about 10 days ago, I had a fever for a couple of days right after my dad tested positive for COVID. I just assumed I might be positive too, so I quarantined myself. Now, I'm dealing with sinus issues, but most of the mucus has gone away and I've barely got any cough left. I got a chest X-ray yesterday, and I'm really concerned about whether I should be worried about pneumonia, especially since I had that brief fever and no real cough. What do you think?

I'm really worried about my recovery from covid. I had mild symptoms and didn't have any breathing issues, but now, even after 30 days since the symptoms began, I'm experiencing some pain in my back and chest. My D-dimer level is 1.12, and I'm anxious about when this will come down and when I'll feel completely normal again. I'm concerned about potential post-covid complications. Is this something I should be worried about, or is this a normal part of the recovery process?

take pantop 40mg for 3 days

I'm dealing with chest congestion and a wet cough that's been going on for over three months now. An X-ray showed I have left hilar lymphadenopathy. I tried taking Cefpodoxime, 200 mg twice a day, but it didn't help. Now I'm on Montelukast and Doxofylline tablets along with Foracort Rotacaps inhalation therapy, but I'm still not seeing any clear improvement. Any ideas on what I should do next?

I've been dealing with some gastric reflux issues and I've noticed this weird pattern where after a few minutes of breathing normally, I find myself needing to take a deep breath or I start yawning, but then I can't really complete the yawn. It's like it's stuck or something. Sometimes my nostrils also feel like they get blocked and I'm wondering if all these could be connected somehow? I've been using inhalers for my breathing problems, but I'm starting to feel like they might not be enough on their own. Could my weight be playing a role in this too? I'm just a bit confused and would love some advice.

yes there is a connection
