Patchy inflation in both upper lobes , as I have detected covid positive 19. Twenty days earlier . Now my report is negative but have some heaviness in chest . Cpr is 11.10 and IL-6 is 23.58 .
Should I go for steroids as suggested by doctors here . Or I will wait through steaming and haldi milks etc .I will recover myself .

Get your CT chest again and do d-dimer. Post both CT puctures- first and latest. Only take anticoagulant- Xoralto 10mg daily fr 4 weeks . Some can have post Covid fibrosis. Hence needs to be confirmed and then antifibrotic drug.
