Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
The Xray report suggests that there is fibrous change in the rt apex of the lungs. It means it is a sign of old T.B infection,and it may not be contageous unless other wise proved active in some other place like abdomen or the bone etc.
I advise you to consult a physician to exclude the active disease in some other place.
Take more of green leafy vegetables,pulses,sprouts, and protein rich foods to have good health and resistance.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
