So, I got a chest X-ray done a couple of days ago, and the results came back showing something about bilateral prominent hila and prominent bronchovascular markings in both lung fields. I'm trying to wrap my head around what this means. Is it something serious that I need to worry about? Should I be looking into treatment for it? Lately, I've been experiencing some shortness of breath and breathing issues too. Would love to get some insight on this.

The X-ray findings suggest increased prominence of the lung structures, which could be due to various conditions like inflammation, infection, or early signs of lung diseases. Since you're experiencing shortness of breath, it's important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and appropriate treatment. They may recommend additional tests to determine the cause and guide you on the necessary steps for management.

I'm a bit worried about some health stuff and hoping you can give me a bit of clarity. I saw a pulmonologist, and they did an X-ray. The ECG was normal, but it showed pulmonary ventricular contractions. My oximeter reading was 99 for oxygen and 123 for heart rate. The doctor said I dont have any breathing problems, but I am feeling short of breath and a tight chest. Could I have COPD? What kind of oximeter reading should a COPD patient have, or when should I be concerned about my breathing? I dont have any allergies, cough, or cold. Would really appreciate some guidance here.

I've been keeping track of my blood oxygen levels ever since I had COVID about six weeks ago. Lately, I've noticed that after climbing stairs, my oxygen levels sometimes drop to around 93-94 for a bit, and it takes about a minute to go back up to 96-97. I'm a bit concerned because I never really checked these numbers before having COVID. Should I be worried about this change in my oxygen levels, or is this just a normal recovery process? When I'm walking or doing the 6-minute test, my oxygen levels are fine at around 96-97, and theyre good when I'm sitting too, around 97-98. Does this sound alright to you?
