I'm a bit worried because I did an RTPCR test for COVID and it came back negative, but I'm still having trouble with wheezing in my chest and some coughing for about 45 days now. I don't have a fever or other symptoms, and the breathing difficulty isn't too bad, but the wheezing is definitely there. I have asthma and normally use my Serflo 250 inhaler only around 10-15 times a year. Just recently, about 5 days ago, I had a really bad allergy attack. I'm not sure what to make of all this. What should I do?

I'm a 25-year-old guy and I've been having this breathing issue for about two weeks now. It really feels like the air isn't reaching my lungs properly, so I'm finding myself having to take really deep breaths or breathe through my mouth more often. I went to see a doctor and they did a respiration test that turned out fine, but I'm still experiencing the problem. I'm a bit worried and could use some guidance or advice. Any insights would be really appreciated.

it might be due to anxiety, reduce your stress levels. take tablet pantoprazole

I've just finished three months of the Anti TB treatment, and my AFB Stain and GeneXpert results have come back negative. Now I'm wondering, should I still go ahead with an AFB Culture or a TB Culture test? I'm just a bit anxious about the next steps here.
