Though my echo and tmt are ok except MVP. can I take covid vaccine in this situation. What will be the side effects if any in my case.

Chances of lung fibrosis after covid

Hi doctor, I got covid 18 days back and I was admitted in hospital for 5 days after 4 days of my symptoms i.e. high fever( sp02 was normal). My initial crp was 6 when I got admitted but it went down to 0.69 after 5 days of treatment and I got discharge. I am on medication now which include predmet 8mg. But I have stopped this medicine due to sudden increase in blood sugar. My chest ct scan showed 30-40% lung involvement. I want to know if I am risk of developing lungs fibrosis in future ??
