Question

I'm really concerned because I took a hard fall in the bathroom and slammed my chest on a tap. It's been about 34 days now and the chest pain hasn't gone away. I did a chest X-ray, and I'm worried if there's anything wrong with it. Could there be a chance of pneumothorax? Also, I have to fly tomorrow and I'm not sure if it's safe to fly with this kind of pain. What do you think?

Question

I'm a 29-year-old guy dealing with allergic rhinitis, and now it's progressed to allergic asthma. I had a chest X-ray, which was normal, but my AEC count came back high. A few days ago, I had a really severe breathing problem, and my doctor put me on Airtec SF 250, ABphylline SR 200 mg, and Montair FX. These have helped a little, but I'm still feeling some breathing issues. I'm wondering if it'll take some time for the symptoms to fully settle down, or if there's anything else I could be taking to feel better. Could you give me some advice?

Question

I'm curious about something. I've had asthma allergic rhinitis for the past two years, but before all that started, I was able to donate blood. Do you think it's still okay for me to give blood now?

Question

I'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?
