I've had corona since September 2020. I'm wondering if it's a good idea to get a CT scan now? Will it show how much it affected me?

I'm looking for some advice from a pulmonologist. Lately, I've been feeling dizzy in the evenings and experiencing a bit of shortness of breath, even though all my blood reports are normal. I heard that Practo might have free doctors available online. Could someone take a look at my reports and help me figure out what's going on?

i cannot see your reports

Is my x-ray normal? I've been dealing with this constant phlegm and cough that keeps coming and going. Plus, my lymph nodes are swollen. Should I be worried?

check for tuberculosis

My husband recently had a lung x-ray as part of his annual checkup, and there are a few things that showed up. I'm a bit concerned because the report mentions broncho vascular markings and mild tenting on the hemidiaphragm. A while back, like 17 years ago, he had a pneumothorax and needed surgery to fix it with a thoracotomy. He's not having any breathing issues or other symptoms now, but should we be worried about these x-ray results? Do you think its necessary for us to see a pulmonologist? Would really appreciate your guidance on this.
