I've been dealing with asthma and currently, Im using inhaled corticosteroids for it. I dont have any other health issues going on, so I'm wondering if it's safe for me to get the Covishield vaccine. Is there anything I should be worried about with the combination of the vaccine and my asthma treatment?

I had TB twice, first in 1997 and again in 2012, with surgeries both times. I completed a 2-year course of meds like T.combutol, T.monopass, and others. Now I'm fine, but my weight has gone up to 89 kg. Recent tests show uric acid at 8.1, total cholesterol 207, HDL 35, LDL 139, triglycerides 125. My doctor suggested losing 17 kg in 2 years through gym. Do you think I really need to lose that much weight, given my medical history?

yes wt reduction is advised.

I'm a bit concerned about my recent chest X-ray results. They mentioned there were suspicious infiltrates in the upper lobe, and I had to get an apicolordotic X-ray. Thankfully, the second test came back with no abnormalities. What does this mean for my health? I just want to understand if there's anything I should be worried about.

It means that while the chest X-ray initially showed some suspicious signs in the upper lung lobe, the follow-up apicolordotic X-ray did not reveal any abnormalities. This suggests that there are no significant issues in that area, which is reassuring. However, it's important to follow up with your doctor for further assessment if needed.
