Wait Until some variable is defined — NodeJS

The problem is the gotxp variable is undefined when it needs to be used to define lvl, which is then sent to the sendimg() function.

Is there a way to wait until gotxp is defined?

The gotxp variable gets defined by a MySQL query which returns a number.

async execute(client, message, args) {
            
        if(!args[0]){

            var gotxp = await readdb(client,message,args);

            let lvl=(gotxp / 100);
            
            console.log('1 lvl ' + lvl + ' gotxp ' + gotxp);//Just a Debug Thing

            
            let username = message.author.username;
            let useravatar = message.author.displayAvatarURL({ format: 'png' });
            
            sendimg(lvl,username,useravatar,message)
        }

//here is the readdb function
async function readdb(client,message,args){
    var con = mysql.createConnection({
                host: client.dbconfig.host,
                user: client.dbconfig.user,
                password: client.dbconfig.password,
                database: client.dbconfig.database,
                supportBigNumbers: true,
                bigNumberStrings: true
            });
    if(!message.mentions.users.size){
        con.query(`SELECT * FROM userdata WHERE serverid = '${message.guild.id}'`, (err, fields) => {
            if (err) {
                return message.channel.send(`Error - Problema de conexión con la base de datos, prueba más tarde`);
            }
            let nowlvl = 0;
            if(fields.length >= 1){
                let id = message.author.id;
                let gotfields = search(fields,id)
                console.log(gotfields)
                if(typeof gotfields != 'undefined') {
                    
                    nowlvl = gotfields.xp;
                    console.log('1 nowlvl ' + nowlvl);
                }
                else{
                    
                    nowlvl = 0;
                    console.log('2 nowlvl ' + nowlvl);
                }
            }
            setTimeout(function() { con.end() }, 100)
            return nowlvl;
        });
    }
    else{
        con.query(`SELECT * FROM userdata WHERE serverid = '${message.guild.id}'`, (err, fields) => {
            if (err) {
                return message.channel.send(`Error - Problema de conexión con la base de datos, prueba más tarde`);
            }
            let nowlvl = 0
            if(fields.length >= 1){
                var id = message.mentions.users.map(user => {
                    return `${user.id}`;
                });
                let gotfields = search(fields,id)
                
                if(typeof gotfields != 'undefined') {
                    nowlvl = gotfields.xp;
                    console.log('3 nowlvl ' + nowlvl);
                }
                else{
                    nowlvl = 0;
                    console.log('4 nowlvl ' + nowlvl);
                }
            }
            setTimeout(function() { con.end() }, 100)
            return nowlvl;
