I'm 27 now and when I was just 6 months old, I had TB and went through a 9-month antibiotic treatment and got better. But now I'm really worried that the TB might come back. Do you think it's possible for TB to reoccur after all these years? Any advice would be really helpful.

I'm really worried about how to manage my loved one's recovery from Covid. Their oxygen levels are mostly stable around 90, but whenever they start coughing, it drops really low to around 82 or 83. What can I do to help get rid of this cough? And are there any specific foods or things that can help boost their oxygen levels and ease the cough a bit?

I recovered from COVID about three months ago and I'm wondering if it's okay for me to get the vaccine now. I've had a wheezing problem for the past decade and use Levolin Rotocaps every day. Could this be an issue with getting vaccinated? I'd really appreciate some advice.

My wife has been dealing with shortness of breath for about 8 months, and it's getting really bad now. She can't even sit still for 5 minutes without a fan or some air. What could be causing this, and is it something that can be cured? We're trying to find a solution quickly, so I'd appreciate any advice.
