Pathologist and Microbiologist,  's  Response
hello and welcome to HCM,
The X-ray report suggests presence of opacities in left lower and left upper zone of the lung fields.
The findings are suggestive of tuberculosis.
This is in accordance to your clinical features.
I assume that you are taking anti tubercular treatment.
You need to get a repeat X-ray done after completion of the anti tubercular treatment.

Thanks and take care
