I'm dealing with COVID for a second time and am currently on my 5th day of quarantine. When I check my oxygen levels with a pulse oximeter, the readings vary depending on which finger I use. Which figure should I trust? And also, my ct value on the RT-PCR test came out to be 27. Does that indicate anything concerning or am I in the safe zone?

I'm really curious about the results of my chest X-ray. The doctor mentioned something about increased bronchovascular markings. Can you tell me what that actually means? Is it something I should be worried about, or is it pretty normal?
Prominent bronchovascular markings is suggestive of asthma,pneumonia,heart failure or pleural effusion etc.
