I'm currently undergoing TB treatment and it's been around four months, but I've noticed some blood in my early morning cough sputum again. It's been worrying me, and I'm unsure if this is normal or something to be concerned about. What should I do from here? Could it mean something's not going as planned with my treatment?

I'm really concerned because every morning I wake up coughing up this thick, sticky phlegm that's jelly-like. It varies in color, sometimes clear, other times white or grey. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

I've been having trouble breathing for more than two months now, especially when I laugh or talk, and it feels like I'm out of breath easily. I went through an X-ray and a cardiac check, and both seem to be normal, but I'm still not sure what's causing it. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a form of anxiety or stress-related breathing difficulty, especially since both your X-ray and cardiac check are normal. It could also be related to muscle tension in the chest or diaphragm. I recommend consulting a respiratory specialist or considering breathing exercises to help manage this.
