I've had TB before back in 2010, but I got through it with treatment. Recently though, I've been experiencing some worrying symptoms. I've got a little chest pain mainly on the right side, there's dry coughing, and it kind of feels like there's a bloody taste in my mouth when I'm trying to get to sleep. There's also some appetite loss going on. Could these be signs of something serious, or am I overthinking it?

I'm experiencing pain on the left side of my lung for the past year. Sometimes it goes away, but other times it really hurts. I recently had an X-ray done, and it says there's a fibrotic lesion on my left upper lung. Is this something serious? What could be causing it? I'm really worried and would love some advice.
