I'm really anxious because I got a positive result after taking a TB Gold Standard test for my UAE work visa, but I'm not showing any symptoms at all. Could there be any connection between this result and HIV, even though my HIV test came back negative? I'm really worried and need some clarification on what's happening.

I'm experiencing some side effects from using the Seretide Accuhaler, and it's starting to concern me. Is there anything I can do to manage these side effects better? Or maybe you could suggest an alternative treatment that might work for me without these issues? I'm looking for some guidance on what to do next.

I've been dealing with a cough for about a month now. I saw a doctor, and my lab results showed it was typhoid. I did the prescribed treatment for a month and stopped, and while I'm not feeling super sick anymore, I'm still not feeling 100% either. I get this occasional deep dry cough a few times a day, and my doctor mentioned it might be allergic bronchiolitis and could stick around for a while. I also feel weak sometimes and have loose motions on occasion. Do you think I should see a doctor again? If so, what kind of specialist would be best? Or is this something that happens after typhoid and will eventually go away on its own? I'm just a bit worried since it's been a month already.
