Can you help me figure out my PFT report? I've been told I have allergic bronchitis. My x-ray and sputum culture look normal, and I used to smoke but quit. Right now, I'm mainly dealing with throat irritation, coughing, and nasal congestion, but no fever or trouble breathing. What can I do to keep these symptoms from coming back? I'm using kastilex ab tablets and furamist spray. Any advice would be great!

So I talked to another pulmonologist who recommended I switch to DOTS and do the full 6-month course. I've already taken AKT4 for a month before switching.

An ultrasound even showed Kochs tuberculosis. I'm really worried and wondering what medicines I could take for this. Any advice?

I've been having these asthma attacks more frequently in the past few days. It used to happen only occasionally and would go away with an asthalin inhaler, but now it's like 2 to 3 times a day. I'm feeling breathless and sometimes hear a wheezing sound. Could it be the dust I encounter while traveling that's causing this? Also, right after I wake up, the symptoms seem to get worse, with a lot of sputum and my eyes get irritated and my throat starts itching. What could be going on here?
Salbutamol inhaler and budesonide 200 sos is advised for breathing difficulty.
