I'm currently on medication for TB with lymph node involvement, taking anti-TB drugs along with Benadon. I'm really curious about why I'm on Benadon specifically. Could you shed some light on this?

I'm really concerned about my asthma. I've had it for 30 years, but in the last two years, I've been experiencing this wheezing issue repeatedly. Every time I use the nebuliser or steroids, I feel better, but once I stop taking the steroids, the problem just comes back again. What should I do about this?

I'm really worried about my Bronco pneumonia. I've had it since I was a kid, and I've heard different things from different doctors. Some say it's due to allergies and might get better with time, while others feel the weather where I live isnt right for me. I even moved to see if that would help, but I'm still having asthma problems. Anytime I get a little cold, the coughing starts and my asthma flares up. I've been using Asthalin to manage it. Do I have to live with this for the rest of my life? Is there anything else I could try or look into?

I've been having issues with heavy breathing when I'm running or using the stairs lately, and Im starting to get worried. I'm a smoker and have been smoking on and offsmoked for two years, took a break for a year, and then picked it up again about three months ago. Could my smoking be causing these breathing problems? What can I do to improve this situation?
