I'm currently on my sixth month of TB treatment, but I've been having this cough for about 10-15 days now. I went to the doctor and he said it's nothing serious, just continued with my usual meds like Rcinex. He also gave me something for allergies like Allegra and some antibiotics. But I saw on my X-ray report from the radiologist that it says "bronchiovascular marking is prominent in bilateral lung field" and I'm wondering if I should be worried about this?

I'm a bit concerned because I've been told that there's minimal fibrosis and atelectasis in my right lung's middle lobe and lingula. Could you help me understand what exactly this means? Is it something I should be worried about, and what steps should I take next? Would really appreciate any insights or advice you could give me.

I'm really worried about my brother who has been in the ICU for two weeks now on ventilation because of COVID. His HRCT score is really high at 25 and the doctors have mentioned he might need a lung transplant and ECMO support which started on June 1st. Thankfully, he's responding okay to it, but his pulse is normal while his Spo2 is stuck at 75. They're saying he has to wait 60 days for the transplant. Do you think he'll be okay until then? Its scary because 100% of his lungs are infected. We had him airlifted to Apollo Hyderabad from Patna and he's still testing positive for COVID. Hes just 34 and never had any health issues before this. His WBC is at 20000, CRP is at 186, and D-dimer is at 1380. What do you think are his chances?
