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 about my mom. She's 64 and had Covid pneumonia back in December 2020. She was on oxygen back then and thankfully recovered. Her breathing seems okay now, but her oxygen levels are always between 94 to 93 when she's awake, and they drop to around 80 to 90 when she's sleeping. We did a chest x-ray two months later, and it showed something called prominent bronchovascular markings of both lung fields. Can you help me understand what that means? Is this something serious or normal? Does she need any treatment for this?

yes she needs treatment. prominent bronchovascular markings means due to infection

Does smoking have any particular impact on how well I might recover or respond to the treatment?
