Hello, I Am A Healthy 55 Year Old Non Cigarette

Question : Hello, I am a healthy 55 year old non cigarette smoking male. On 3/14/20 I was tested positive for COVID19. My symptoms were fairly benign (dry cough, low fever, fatigue, and headache) which lasted for about 3 days and gradually improved over the next two weeks.

The dry cough has been intermittent.

I was getting a follow up CT scan yesterday (with and without contrast) to check on a mildly dilated aortic root (39mm) and my cardiologist advised me that I have the presence of %E2%80%9Cground glass in my lower right lobe%E2%80%9D but is not present anywhere else.

I will note that in 11/19 as part of an executive physical a full-body MDCT revealed %E2%80%9Cmild scarring in the medial right lower lobe, along thoracic osteophytes. No concerning pulmonary consolidation, mass, or nodule.%E2%80%9D

I do not have the films as yet, nor do I have the written radiologist report.

Candidly, this scares me. I am a fairly competitive athlete and am worried that this is a non-reversable condition or the sign of more serious trouble ahead.

I know you don%E2%80%99t have films, but is there any insight you might provide based on what I told you?

Many thanks, XXXXXXX
