I'm facing a problem with my breathing whenever I'm in cold places like my office, and it seems like that's when my cough really kicks in. I don't have the flu or anything, but I notice I'm breathing really fast. Anyone know what could be going on?

So, I've been to see a chest specialist, and he thinks I have TB because I'm dealing with pleurisy. He hasn't done any reports but is giving me medicine for it. Is this normal? I also did a TB Gold test, and it came back positive with a gamma radiation level of 0.45. Does this mean I definitely have TB? I'm a bit worried and would love your input.

yes you gave tb
