Had a ct scan and the report says 'serial axial ct scan of the chest shows reticular opacities in the right apical region and right upper lobe' ?

Many things: Images found in diagnostic tests such as CT scans can only be interpreted properly in concert with history, physical and clinical context. " Reticular opacities" can mean man things such as a prior or current infection, architectual damage or inflammation. Speak with your doctor.
