So, I got my apicolordotic view test results and it mentions a few fibrotic opacities in the right upper lobe, possibly related to Koch's etiology. What does this mean? Should I be concerned about Koch's disease, and what are the next steps I should take?

The Apicolordotic view X-ray report suggests that you may have had tuberculosis (TB) in the past, as indicated by the presence of fibrotic opacities in the right upper lobe, which are likely scars from healed TB lesions, also known as Koch's lesions.

I'm a 33-year-old guy and I've been dealing with a cough for the past 20 days. Along with the cough, I'm noticing yellow-light green mucus. I've been using whey protein for about a month since I started working out at the gym, and I'm wondering if it might be the reason for my issues. I stopped using it three days ago, but the cough hasn't gone away. I also used to eat raw spinach and broccoli but I've quit those too. My cough tends to worsen when I'm lying down to sleep, and it feels like my chest really fills up with mucus, especially early in the morning. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm a 27-year-old female and I've been frequently checking my SpO2 levels because of shortness of breath, which I've had since August. Most times, it reads between 96-98, but sometimes it dips to 93 for a second and then goes back to 95 or 97. Is this something normal? I'm also getting sweaty and don't have a fever or anything, but I am kind of worried. Can you help me understand if these are typical readings and if I should be concerned about these symptoms?

Normal,nothing to worry ok.
