Question

I recently came across an old x-ray report that mentions 'healed tuberculosis,' and I'm honestly quite concerned. Does this mean that I still have active TB, or does it signify something else? Am I currently dealing with tuberculosis in any way? Just trying to understand what this really implies for my health.

Question

I'm a bit worried because my ultrasound shows there's fluid in my lungs indicating a chest infection, but my blood report came back normal. Also, last week my Hba1c level was reported at 7.1. What could this mean for my overall health, and should I be concerned about these results in combination?

Question

I've been dealing with some phlegm in the mornings and I'm feeling really tired. Could you take a look at my X-ray report to see what's going on?
