I'm having some trouble with my breathing, and there's this whistling sound whenever I breathe in or out. I've been dealing with asthma since I was a kid. Do you think these issues are related to my childhood asthma, or could it be something else?

View allI've been on TB meds for a couple of months now and feel pretty good, but I'm still a bit worried. Before all this, I was dealing with a fever for about a month and lost a lot of weight. A chest CT showed those enlarged lymph nodes typical of TB, and my ESR was just a tad high. But after getting an EBUS Test and FNAC, all my reports came back negative, even the AFB culture. The doctor still thought it was best to start the TB treatment. Is it normal for all the tests to be negative even if you have TB?

I'm having trouble breathing and it's been happening for a while now. Lately though, it feels like I'm not getting enough air, and when I try to take a deep breath, sometimes I just can't. It's making me really uncomfortable. Could this possibly be a sign of asthma?
no its not a symptom of asthma. it might be due to anxiety, reduce your stress

I'm really struggling with a severe cough and congestion, especially at night. It's gotten to the point where I'm coughing so much that I can't sleep. I've heard that Azithromycin tablets might help with this, but I'm not sure. Is Azithromycin a good option for these symptoms, or should I be looking into something else?
Yes you can use it no problem
