What can you make of my mom's recent X-ray? She's 60, and after testing positive for COVID antibodies 18 days after her first symptoms, the new X-ray shows some prominent bronchovascular markings with a patchy non-homogeneous opacity in the left lower zone. It also mentions something about a bulky right hilum with calcified lymph nodes. Should I be worried about these findings?

View allHey, so it's been over four months since I recovered from COVID, but I'm constantly checking my SPO2 levels, like 40 times a day. It's usually around 98, but if it drops to 97 or 96 for just a few seconds, I start to panic, and my heartbeat goes up. When I had COVID, my CT score was 12, and after two months in April, it went down to 7. I often leave my finger on the oximeter for at least 10 minutes, and it fluctuates between 96 and 98, sometimes even 95 to 98. Should I still be doing this? I'm really scared. What should I do?
don't get scared , you are fit and fine

I'm a bit confused and worried about my recent HRCT thorax report. It mentioned that there are a few subcentimetric lymph nodes in the pre-tracheal and pre-carinal regions, but everything else seems normal. I've been having breathing issues, though my PFT report came back completely normal. It turns out the breathing problem is caused by an arytenoid covering half of my vocal cord. I just need to know, are these subcentimetric lymph nodes something to worry about, or are they considered normal?
not a cause for concern

Every time I drink any fluids, I end up with this annoying wet cough. I talked to my doctor and they mentioned something about mucosis. I'm really looking for some advice on this. What could be causing this, and is there anything I can do to prevent it? It's starting to get frustrating.
It sounds like you may be experiencing mucus buildup in your throat triggered by fluid intake. This could be related to conditions like acid reflux, allergies, or postnasal drip. Stay hydrated with warm fluids and avoid irritants; if it persists, consider seeing a specialist for further evaluation.
