I'm having some trouble breathing, but both my chest X-ray and ECG came back normal. They mentioned there's a bit of congestion, and I'm on medication for that. The thing is, my oximeter is reading my oxygen level at 91. Should I be worried about this?

I've just had a PFT test done, and my FEV1FVC readings came out to be 110, both for pre and post-tests. I'm a bit concerned because I can't consult my pulmonologist since they're on vacation. Do you think this is something I should be worried about?

I'm wondering if there are any side effects I should watch out for after having a CT pulmonary angiogram a month ago? Also, can a pulmonary embolism develop sometime after the procedure? I've been having chest pain around the area under both my armpits, and it's got me a bit worried. Could this be related?

I'm worried because it feels like my deep breaths aren't fully satisfying, even though my normal breaths seem okay. After 7 to 8 regular breaths, I feel like I need a deeper breath but it's incomplete. Plus, I'm feeling kind of weak, maybe even feverish, but I don't actually have a fever. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Ecg and x-ray chest is advised to the patient.
