I've been feeling breathless for the past couple of weeks, but my X-ray and pulmonary function test came back normal. The doctor mentioned something about Telecast L. Can you help me understand what this is and how it might help with my breathlessness? I'm starting to worry since everything looks normal on the tests.

I'm really worried because my dad has a chest CT scan score of 525 and he's been diagnosed with COVID. Does this mean he's in a lot of danger? Should we get him admitted to the hospital right away? It's really concerning.

Physician opinion is advised to the patient.
