I'm a bit worried about what it means when they say there's a calcified lesion in the right hilum. Is it something serious? Should I be considering any tests or medication for this? Just trying to understand if I need to be concerned.

I'm a bit worried because my oxygen levels keep changing. Earlier, when I checked about half an hour ago, the readings were 97 for both my left and right fingers. But now, I just checked again, and I got 82 on my left finger and 89 on my right. Can you help me understand why this might be happening?

I've been doing deep breathing and anulom Vilom pranayams for about 45 days now, and I'm starting to feel a heaviness in my head, like I'm going to faint, and theres a weird sensation in my cervical area when I do them. My oxygen levels and breath-holding are actually pretty good, but I also notice I have a lot of gas or acidity. I'm a bit concerned about what's happening and would really appreciate any advice on what could be causing this and how I might treat it.
