I'm feeling really worried and confused right now. My wife, who's a doctor, talked to a pulmonologist who checked my scan report and said it's definitely TB, but I'm having a hard time accepting this. I live a healthy lifestyle, don't smoke or drink, so I'm doubtful if it's true. I haven't done the CBNAAT or culture test again yet, and I'm really unsure about jumping into treatment right away. Do you think I should get another doctor's opinion first before starting TB treatment?

View allI've been dealing with a really bad cough that gets worse at night, but it's milder during the day. Its been about a week now, and Im really starting to get worried. What could be causing this, and is there anything I should do to find some relief?
For nighttime cough, you can try taking **Benadryl** (diphenhydramine) at night to help with the cough and improve sleep quality. For daytime relief, you can consider taking **Robitussin DM** (dextromethorphan and guaifenesin) to help suppress the cough during the day. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging for both medications. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really confused about my chest congestion issue I've had for a few years now. It always flares up if I don't take Foracort 200 or Citzen, which were given by my last doctor. One doctor said it's a dust allergy, but another mentioned bronchitis, so I'm not sure which one is right. I just want to find a cure and know what's actually causing this. Can you help me figure this out?
Forocort 200 inhaler sos is advised for breathing difficulty.
