I'm a bit concerned about my health after having a cold. My antigen test came back negative, and I've noticed my respiration rate is 14, and my SpO2 has dropped to 95 from 99 before the cold. Im wondering if the lower SpO2 could be related to the cold since I dont have fever or body aches. Could you give me some insight into this?

View allI'm really curious to know if it's normal for someone who had Pulmonary TB to experience hemoptysis even after being cured? Like, if there was a cavity left from the TB, could that cause bleeding later in life?
yes hemoptysis occurs during lung tuberculosis

I'm experiencing persistent shortness of breath and this odd sensation like there's something stuck in my throat which makes me burp. I took a Covid test on June 17th, and it came back negative, so I'm wondering if it's possible for Covid not to show up on those tests? My Pulmonologist recommended an HRCT of my chest and an ECHO, both done by June 30th, and the results came back normal. I'm curious if an HRCT can sometimes miss Covid. Also, if someone has a heart blockage, would that show up as any kind of abnormality on an ECHO?
no confirm with HRCT , IMPACT SHOWS

I've been having this breathlessness issue for a while now. It's strange because I don't have asthma and my blood pressure is normal. The doctor did some kind of small lung test using this tiny machine on my finger, and that came out normal too. But I keep getting this really frequent cough and have problems with acidity. Could they be related? I'm wondering if this is something serious. What's your take on it?
While your symptoms might not necessarily indicate something major, it's important to address them proactively. GERD, post-nasal drip, or even stress could be contributing to your symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor for further evaluation to rule out other conditions
