I'm kind of worried because I finished my TB treatment a year ago, but now I'm experiencing chest pain, although I don't have a cough or anything like that. I'm just wondering, is it possible that the TB could be back even though my reports aren't showing any signs of it?

I've been experiencing this sharp chest pain on the right side whenever I take a deep breath, and it's been going on for like three days now. It's really starting to worry me, and I'm not sure what could be causing it. Could it be something serious, and should I be concerned? What do you think might be going on?

Can you tell me if it's okay to use normal saline instead of distilled water in an oxygen concentrator? Or maybe there's something else I could use as a substitute for distilled water? I'm just a bit worried and want to make sure it's safe.

My wife has been dealing with shortness of breath for about 8 months, and it's getting really bad now. She can't even sit still for 5 minutes without a fan or some air. What could be causing this, and is it something that can be cured? We're trying to find a solution quickly, so I'd appreciate any advice.
