I recently started my TB medication and usually take it around 9 in the morning, but I messed up and forgot to have it on time. I just remembered it at about 11 at night and decided to take it then. I'm worried if taking it so late might cause any issues. Should I be concerned about this lapse in my schedule?

I'm a bit worried because I had a chest X-ray on May 20, which was all clear. But then another X-ray on July 1 showed tenting of the left hemi diaphragm. Can someone explain what this means and if I should be concerned? I was COVID positive on April 9, and I haven't been vaccinated yet. Plus, my heart rate is pretty high, and I'm experiencing chest pain. What should I do next?

I've been having trouble with my breathing for like 3 months now, and I'm kinda lost on what to do next. I've already done some tests like an ECG, and it showed my heartbeat is a bit faster than normal. Plus, I've had normal results for my X-ray and thyroid function test. In my latest blood tests, my triglycerides, SGPT, SGOT, and uric acid are just slightly above normal. I've also gained some weight during quarantine and got a bit of a belly. I'm just wondering if all of this could be related to my breathing issues or shortness of breath? Any advice on what might be going on or what I should do?

Physician opinion is advised to the patient.
