Hi Carla,

Have the apicolordotic view done. It is an x-ray taken from another angle that better images the tops of the lungs.

You might have PTB. It is important that you have this test done. You may also have a sputum analysis performed.

Good luck.

Apicolordotic view is suggested for suspicious densities in the left apex
