I'm having a bit of trouble with my breathing, especially when I'm climbing stairs. I've been using my inhaler, and I've also had the Prevenar 13 vaccination back in 2018 and the FLUQUADRI 0.5ml booster in July 2019. My doctor has mentioned I need another vaccination for this season, especially with the monsoon coming. Could you let me know if the FLUQUADRI 2020-21 vaccine is available in Electronic City, Bangalore? Any insights would be really helpful.

Hey, my mom's 45 and she's had TB twice, in 2013 and 2014. She followed the anti-TB schedule, but her coughing just won't stop, and she gets colds super easily. She's been feeling pretty unwell, especially after bleeding episodes, which have happened four times. Sometimes it's a lot of blood, other times, just a bit. We got an X-ray done and visited a doctor who said there's nothing to worry about, but I'm still really concerned. The doctor prescribed some pneumonia meds, but I'm anxious to know how long it'll take for her to fully recover. Any advice or insights would be a big help.
Usually it takes around 6-9 months for a tb patient to recover.Rest continue all the medications as advised by the physician.

I've been diagnosed with tuberculosis and they've also found fibrotic band opacities in my lungs. Is this the same as lung fibrosis, and if so, does it get worse over time? I'm really freaking out about this and would appreciate any insights.
Tuberculosis and fibrotic band opacities are not the same as lung fibrosis, although they can be related. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, while fibrotic band opacities are a type of scarring that can occur in the lungs due to various reasons, including infections like tuberculosis. Lung fibrosis, on the other hand, is a specific condition characterized by progressive scarring of the lung tissue. In your case, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.
