Question

I'm a 28-year-old male and Ive noticed some blood in my spit, mostly in the mornings after I wake up. I dont smoke and I'm generally healthy with no cough or anything like that. I sometimes deal with allergies, so I'm wondering if that could be causing it? Ive had a chest X-ray and it was all good. I also occasionally have gas issues and migraines. What could be causing the blood in my sputum?

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

So, I had this maid looking after my 1.5-year-old daughter for a few months, but she got sick once, even coughed up blood. I decided to let her go right after. This happened a couple of months back. I went ahead and got some tests done, like a sputum test for tuberculosis, which came back negative. But then she mentioned her dad passed away from TB 14 years ago. She's got a couple of sisters, a mom, and a brother in the family too. We did a digital x-ray and a helical CT chest scan, and those were normal. I'm just wondering, given her symptoms and her family history, is there still a possibility she might have active tuberculosis?

Question

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having trouble breathing and chest pain for a few weeks now. We saw a cardiologist, and he recommended a chest X-ray and an ECO. His diagnosis was pneumonia affecting both lungs, and he prescribed some injections for a week. I'm really concernedhow serious is this? Is pneumonia something that can be cured easily?
