I'm suddenly having breathing issues 11 days after recovering from COVID. My oximeter shows my oxygen levels are between 95 and 97. I didn't have any breathing problems during COVID itself. Is this normal, or could there still be some sort of COVID infection in my body?

I'm currently dealing with extra pulmonary tuberculosis and have developed left pleural effusion. I'm now in the fourth month of my continuous phase of ATT. These days, I'm taking Macox plus 600 and Ecox 1000mg tablets daily. I'm wondering, is it okay to continue with these medications for the rest of the ATT course? Would really appreciate your guidance on this!

I just got my x-ray results back and it says there's prominence of broncho markings in both of my lungs. I'm currently dealing with bronchitis and taking medication for it.
