Question

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for about six months now. Initially, it was just a cough, but recently I've noticed some blood when I cough, though it's only happened once or twice. I went to NIMS and they did an X-ray and endoscopy, but didn't find anything and they prescribed me Reswas and Trenxa syrup. Unfortunately, the cough hasn't improved and it tends to get worse at night. I'm feeling okay otherwise, but this nighttime cough is really starting to bother me. Could you suggest where I should go next or what kind of specialist I should consult?

Question

Hey, I recently got my TB gold test done and it came back positive with gamma radiation at 0.45. I'm diagnosed with TB but I'm not experiencing any typical symptoms like coughing. Instead, I have pleurisy and Im kind of worried and curious about what this means for my health. Can you help explain what's going on?

Question

I've been having really bad shortness of breath and this tight feeling in my chest, especially when it's cold and rainy like in November and December. I've noticed it's happening a lot more often, like almost every day now. I can't sleep in the early mornings because I start coughing and sneezing, and then immediately feel out of breath. I usually take Seraflo 250 and it helps for a bit, but I'd really love some advice or to know if theres a better medication that might help me deal with this. Any suggestions?

Question

I'm 28 and have been using Budamate 200 respules for about four months now. I haven't had any attacks during this time and stopped taking it a week ago without any problems. I'm just curious about whether I should stop taking it entirely or if I should continue. If I should keep taking it, how much longer should I be on this medication?
