I've been having trouble with my breathing for a while now, and I'm getting worried. I'm 22, female, and I have hypothyroidism. My nose bone is a little big too. For the past year, I've been dealing with this constant heavy feeling in my chest while breathing, congestion in my nose, and chest pain. It even makes me feel a bit dizzy sometimes. Do you have any idea what could be causing this, and what I should do about it?

I'm feeling really worried because I've had symptoms like a fever around 100F, a lot of coughing, and this weird pressure on the left side of my chest and back for the last four days. I've stayed at home, isolated myself, and took a COVID test, but I don't have the results yet. I also have asthma and allergies to dust and smoke. Could you please suggest what precautions to take and if there's any medication I should consider?

I'm really concerned about my recent CT scan report. It's a post-COVID report showing signs of lung fibrosis. Could you help me understand what this means? I'm anxious to know more about the implications and what steps I should take next.

Is there any chance I can get around the visa denial issue due to the old TB marks on my X-ray? It's frustrating because I had TB six years ago, I've been completely fit since then. I really don't know how to get a clear X-ray now. Is there anything I can do about this?
