Is there any chance I can get around the visa denial issue due to the old TB marks on my X-ray? It's frustrating because I had TB six years ago, I've been completely fit since then. I really don't know how to get a clear X-ray now. Is there anything I can do about this?

I'm just curious about something and a bit worried. Is it possible for a condition like asthma, which has been pretty much under control, to start acting up after getting a COVID vaccine? I've heard some stories and just want to know if there's anything to that.
yes it can trigger asthma

I've recently been diagnosed with COVID-19 and while the fever, diarrhea, and vomiting are gone, I'm really worried about some new symptoms. I'm dealing with severe chest pain, chest tightness, and breathing problems. Right now, I'm on mechanical oxygen support at home. My PT and D-Dimer plasma levels are pretty high, and there's a concern about pulmonary embolism. I've been having excessive sweating for the past two months, leg cramps, and some occasional swelling, which is concerning me even more. My chest X-ray came back clear, but I read that X-rays might not always catch a pulmonary embolism. Could you tell me what I should do next and what would the treatment be if it is a pulmonary embolism?
