I'm experiencing something a little odd with my breathing. Most of the time, I can breathe normally, but whenever I try to take a really deep breath, it feels a bit difficult to fully inhale. It's not constant, only happens sometimes, but it's got me a bit worried. Is this something I should be concerned about? Any ideas on what might be causing it?

Why haven't my cough and thick sputum gone away even after 10 years since taking CAT1? Now I've been diagnosed with MDR, and although I don't have major issues apart from the constant coughing, it's really persistent, especially in the morning. I also get tired easily throughout the day. Could this lingering cough be related to MDR, and is it normal to feel this tired all the time? Should I be worried about missing chest pains or aches? What can I do to manage this better?

take treatment for MDR tuberculosis
