Thanks for asking at Healthcare Magic. I read your question and I understand your concern.
Your CT Scan reports has three differentials.
1. lung metastasis that is stage four cancer
2. Miliary tuberculosis
3. multiple abscesses
I would like to advise to have CT abdomen and Pelvis with contrast, ESR, sputum AFB if you have also complain of cough, bronchoscopy with biopsy to reach at the final diagnosis.
Take pain killer like tramadol for temporary relief.
Hope it helps best.
