I'm experiencing some concerning symptoms after being prescribed certain medicines for my breathing issues and high IGE levels. I've been taking Omnacortil, starting at 40 mg and tapering down, but after finishing the 30 mg dose yesterday, I decided not to take it today because I've been having blurred vision, confusion, and feeling really weak. I've also stopped taking Histafree M two days ago, and I finished my course of L Cin 500. The only thing I'm still taking is Zincovit. Could these symptoms be caused by the medication, or is there something else going on? I'm really worried and would love some advice.

View allHey, I'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with type 2 diabetes for a while now and recently, about 3 months back, he got diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis. He didn't tell anyone in our family because he thought it was just a regular cough and cold. But when things didn't get better, we had him tested, and it turned out to be TB. The chest X-ray and CT scan show a significant infection in both his lungs, with consolidation and cavitation, but thankfully no pleural or pericardial effusion. Now he's also got pneumonia because of all this. He's been on DOTS treatment for the last 10 days, but he's still coughing up phlegm. I'm anxious to know when we might start seeing some improvement in his condition. Could you shed some light on this?
it atleast will take 2-3 months to improve his condition, but you should continue DOTS for 6 months

I've been having trouble breathing like I did when I had asthma as a kid. This started last Monday and seems to be happening every night since I began playing football. Could these breathing issues be related to my new activity, and how can I get back to normal?

My dad was diagnosed with TB a couple of weeks ago, and hes been on the medication for about 10 days now. But for the last two days, hes been coughing up a little blood mixed with sputum. What should we do about this?
Dont worry its due to activeness of the disease, will subside as you proceed with treatment, take cough suppressing syrups as of now.
