I'm currently on ATT since July 7th because I got drug-induced hepatitis from pyrizinamide. The treatment has been going on without pyrizinamide now, but today I noticed some swelling on my face around both sides of my nose in the cheek area. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

I've been experiencing this weird, persistent cough once a day or so, and each time it comes with this white, sticky phlegm. It only seems to stop after I somehow manage to clear it all out. Sometimes I even have to force myself to vomit just to get it out of my throat. Also, I've noticed a whistling or wheezing sound when I breathe in while Im coughing. Could you help me figure out what's going on, and suggest who I should reach out to for help?

I'm dealing with wheezing that's been with me since I was a kid. Now that Im 30, it's just unbearable. Im constantly struggling with a cold and cough all day long. Any advice on what I might do to get some relief?

try contacting your physician and they might increase the dose or change your tablets for asthma

I've been on TB medication for 9 months now. I weighed 50 kg at the start, but now I'm up to 69 kg, and I do feel less tired. The issue is that I sometimes get a slight pain in the upper part of my chest when I take a deep breath while standing. It's strange because I don't feel any pain if I'm lying down and doing the same thing, and I actually breathe easier after a workout. It's really been bothering me. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

do chest xray
