Question

I've been struggling with this severe wet whooping cough for 7 months now and it's really worrying me. I'm 6 months pregnant and don't smoke, but nothing seems to help. Ive been on antibiotics and have gone to the hospital 40 times where they gave me lots of IVs. The doctors say I have tuberculosis, pneumonia, bronchitis, and a really deep wet bronchial infection, plus a severe lung infection. When I breathe and cough, my chest rattles, and after being auscultated, they said theres a croaking sound from my lungs. Sometimes when I cough, its so bad I turn red or even blue because I can't breathe. Honestly, Im scared. What should I do to finally get rid of this cough?
