@lhabada Has a pulmonologist ordered a lung CT scan to determine if Covid caused permanent damage? It sounds like mucus is trapped in your lungs. Once they diagnose why, you can learn proper techniques to clear it out. This is important because trapped mucus is a safe harbor where germs can grow, causing repeated pneumonia or other lung infections.

Sue,

Yes, I had a CT Chest W/O IV Contrast W/CAD Diagnostic test on 1/2/2024. The doctor told me results of the test were inconclusive other than I do have Bilateral calcified & non calcified pleural plaque consistent with asbestos exposure. I suspect there is not enough information on long covid to help them to know what to look for on a CT test. Thanks for your suggestion.
