Is it possible for someone with 80% lung damage, maybe from COVID-19, to recover? She seemed to be getting better, but now the doctors are telling us to bring her home and that she might not survive more than a month. They mentioned that only prayers could make a difference. Is there really nothing else we can do?

I'm currently undergoing TB treatment, and it's been about three weeks. I've been feeling really weak and lethargic, I've lost some weight, and I'm experiencing fever, chills, and a tight feeling in my chest. Also, my alkaline phosphate level is up to 129 uL. I'm just wondering if there's a way to get better results or faster relief with my treatment. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Sputum for AFB,microscopy ,complete blood count,esr,C-reactive protein,and x-ray chest is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with a really bad cold and cough for a week now, and my nose is constantly running. It's making it hard to breathe, and the chest pain is pretty severe. I saw a general physician, but there's been no relief. The coughing and cold are making so much mucus build up, and the pain in my chest is unbearable. I'm feeling really weak and just can't shake this cold. What should I do?

do chest x ray
