I was hoping to get some advice about my recovery. I had a negative antigen test on August 25th, but by the 27th, I started having fever and weakness, and then on the 29th, I experienced breathing issues. After going for a HRCT on August 30th, it showed Co Rad 4, and I got admitted the same day. I went through a week of treatment with Remedesivir, Meropenam, and Azithromycin, among other things. After being discharged 10 days ago, I took a 5-day course of Fluvir and some other medicines. Now, my pulse and oxygen levels are stable, but I'm still feeling weak. Do you think I need to take any medicine for the weakness, or should I talk to a doctor about it? Is this kind of weakness normal after such treatments?

I've been experiencing a lot of pain in my left chest, and it's making it a bit difficult for me to breathe. I already had an X-ray, but it came back clear, and a sputum test didn't show anything either. A chest specialist mentioned it could be muscular, but I'm worried because it's affecting my breathing and making me feel very tired. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?

That could be muscle catch no need to worry take adequate rest and follow your doctor advice,you will be fine
