I'm concerned about a non-homogenous opacity nodular in the right upper zone of my lungs. I'm planning to undergo a GCC medical examination for Saudi Arabia and I'm wondering what this means for my health and if it will affect my medical test. Could you provide some insights or advice on this situation?

View allI'm having real trouble with breathing, a sharp pain in my chest, and I've lost my appetite. I was told it might be gastritis, but honestly, I don't think that's it because the meds aren't helping at all. Could it be something else? What should I do?

I've been having this issue for the last few years where I can breathe just fine during the day, but when I'm sleeping, particularly in the early mornings, theres this sound from my chest and I struggle to breathe properly. I end up waking up and have to do some breathing exercises to feel normal again. Even though my lung function seems okay according to the doctors I've seen, this is really messing with my sleep, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Any advice?

So, I got my apicolordotic view test results and it mentions a few fibrotic opacities in the right upper lobe, possibly related to Koch's etiology. What does this mean? Should I be concerned about Koch's disease, and what are the next steps I should take?
The Apicolordotic view X-ray report suggests that you may have had tuberculosis (TB) in the past, as indicated by the presence of fibrotic opacities in the right upper lobe, which are likely scars from healed TB lesions, also known as Koch's lesions.
