Question

My wife is 26 and got COVID-19 back in September, which later led to pneumonia. The pneumonia just wouldn't go away, and after some tests, we found out it's actually Pulmonary TB. She's been on a 6-month medication course for the past 3 months. But she's so weak all the time and vomits a lot, like, almost every time she eats, she throws up in about 30 minutes. How long do you think this will last? It's honestly really worrying.

Question

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 72, almost 76, and he's been having breathing issues. It's getting to the point where he can't even walk 10 meters without struggling. I think it's causing excess CO2 in his body and lower oxygen levels. Plus, he's finding it really hard to use his BiPAP machine, so he's not using it as much. He's also on a nebulizer. What should we do in this situation?

Question

I'm really worried about my friend who's been dealing with cough syncope. Initially, he was told to take Sercef CV 500 with Cefuroxime and Clavulanic Acid for six days, but that didn't help. Then a pulmonologist switched him to Azee 500 Azithromycin and Allegra 120, and it's been three days on those meds without any change. His chest X-ray and blood work are all okay, which is kind of confusing. He's been coughing for about 20 days now, and it's scary because he fainted three times today and hurt himself. An ENT he saw in the beginning gave him steroids but that also didnt work. We're really concerned, and Im just wondering what other options there might be to help him out?
