Could anyone translate this to layman's term for me to understand it easier?

Current Complaint: A 67-year-old male, Jackson, arrived at the doctor’s office complaining of SOB, tachypnea, and some hemoptysis. His symptoms have been going on for one week.

History: Patient has COPD and frequent URI. Most recent TB test was negative.

Symptoms: Temperature is 102°, R are 25 per minute, BP is 145/90, heart rate is 75 beats per minute. Patient has a persistent cough during examination. O2 levels obtained with an oximeter show 92%.

Tests Ordered: ABGs, CXR, PFT, CT

Diagnosis: After tests were performed, ABGs show low O2 level and increased CO2 level. CXR shows atelectasis in the LUL. PFT confirms COPD. CT demonstrates possible pulmonary embolism.

Treatment Plan: Recommend pulmonary angiography to rule out pulmonary embolism. Continue treatment for COPD, specifically emphysema. Refer patient to ENT for further evaluation.
