Question

I'm dealing with a dry cough and just found out my blood SGPT level is 60.5. I'm really worried and wondering if there's any link between this and bronchovascular lung disease. What should I be aware of?

Your SGPT level of 60.5 indicates mild liver stress, which might be unrelated to your dry cough. However, a persistent dry cough can sometimes hint at bronchovascular issues or lung conditions, which could indirectly affect overall health. It's best to consult a doctor for a detailed evaluation and management plan.

Question

I recently got the results from my chest x-ray, and there's a note about increased right basal markings and something called pneumonitis, non-specific. Everything else seems clear. Can you help me understand what this means? Is there a chance I'm starting to develop pneumonitis?

Question

I've been smoking for about 3 years and decided to quit a few weeks ago, but I'm having these random pains in my chest and back where I used to feel inflammation when I smoked. Is this normal after quitting? Should I be worried about these pains, or is it just part of my body adjusting to not smoking anymore?

Question

I've been dealing with a pretty rough cough for about a week now, and it's been really productive. On top of that, I've had this severe cold for about five days. I took Azithromycin and Monteleukast, but I'm not sure if they're helping. Should I be worried, or do I just need to give it more time? What should I do next?
