Shortness of breath with 98 as oxygen
I am tested covid positive last week, my oxygen saturation is between 95-98 fluctuating over few days. Even when oxygen saturation is 98, i experienced little shortness of breath after physical activity and while talking. Should i go for CT scan or is it normal with covid, currently i'm in home isolation
