I'm a bit concerned about my health. I was diagnosed with lymph node TB in my neck and took Forecox and Moxif 400mg for 6 months. The swelling in my nodes went away after two months, which was great, but now I'm noticing some issues. I feel a bit tired and sometimes have acidic sensations, itching, and a tingling feeling. Should I be getting any follow-up tests even though my doctor says there aren't any possible? And how much longer should I keep taking the medicine? I'm really looking for some guidance on this.

I'm using a Philips Dream Station Auto CPAP machine with an oronasal mask for almost a year now because I have obstructive sleep apnea with an AHI of 31.4. I've been hearing about this black fungus issue caused by prolonged mask use and I'm not sure if I should keep using it. I was diagnosed with Covid back in August 2020, but I was asymptomatic and recovered fine. Can you advise me on whether I should continue using the CPAP machine right now?

I'm concerned about taking montek LC for an extended period. Could it have any negative effects on my kidneys, liver, or any other part of my body?

Long-term use of Montek LC (Montelukast and Levocetirizine) is generally considered safe, but may increase the risk of liver enzyme elevation, kidney damage, and other adverse effects, such as increased blood pressure, fatigue, and mood changes; regular monitoring of liver and kidney function, as well as periodic check-ups with your doctor, can help minimize potential risks and ensure safe long-term use.
