I'm currently dealing with extra pulmonary tuberculosis and have developed left pleural effusion. I'm now in the fourth month of my continuous phase of ATT. These days, I'm taking Macox plus 600 and Ecox 1000mg tablets daily. I'm wondering, is it okay to continue with these medications for the rest of the ATT course? Would really appreciate your guidance on this!

I've been dealing with continuous breathlessness and mild chest pain for the last 5 years, and it's really been affecting my life. My local chest specialist gave me some anxiety meds, and they help a bit but not fully. I've had ECHO and TMT tests in the past 14 months to check for heart problems, but they came back normal. Sometimes sleeping helps, but other times it gets worse when I'm trying to sleep. I'm feeling really restrictedI can't exercise or playand it's frustrating not knowing the root cause, which means I'm not really getting treated for it. Can you suggest what steps I could take or what might be going on?
try doing some exercises and yoga

I'm really worried because I had an allergic bronchitis attack about 5 years ago, and now it feels like the same thing happened again last night. My breathing airways got blocked, and I had this wheezing sound coming from my chest the whole time. I couldn't sleep at all. The last time this happened, I used an Albuterol inhaler to get through it. Should I stick with that again, or is there something else I should do?
yes
