I recently had a checkup at Fortis Hospital and the chest X-ray showed tiny calcifications in the left mid-zone of my chest. Is this something I should be worried about?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 49 and dealing with a thyroid problem, but now she's tested positive for Covid. Her HR CT report seems fine, and she's mainly experiencing weakness and a bit of a dry cough. Her oxygen levels are usually between 93 to 98 during the day, but at night while she's sleeping, her spo2 level drops quickly to around 80-85, which is pretty alarming. We end up waking her up, and then her spo2 levels return to normal. Could this be because of Covid? Should I be worried? What should we do if this happens again?

I'm really worried about how my body is reacting to the ATT medications. It seems like none of the four drugs are tolerable, whether I take them alone or together. I've started getting ulcers in my mouth and throat, and I'm constantly feeling weak and tired. Could you please advise on how I can manage these side effects or if there are any alternative treatments I should consider?
