I'm really worried because my COVID-19 test came back positive and my CT score is 27.82. I'm not showing any signs of high fever though, so I'm a bit confused about what steps I should take next. Can you give me some guidance?

I'm a bit concerned because I got my x-ray report back today, and it says I have a ground glass appearance in the peripheral region of my left lung. I'm not really sure what this means or why it would happen. Could you help me understand this?

ground glass appearance can be due to various reasons of lung pathology, should correlate with your clinical symptoms
