I'm really curious to know if it's normal for someone who had Pulmonary TB to experience hemoptysis even after being cured? Like, if there was a cavity left from the TB, could that cause bleeding later in life?

I'm dealing with a lung issue here. My right lung got injured because I was coughing a lot, and the doctor had to operate and put a tube in. Now it's healed up, but the x-ray shows my right lung is full of water. Is there a way to get rid of it with just medicine? What should I do?

I'm worried because it feels like I'm not breathing well enough. I have to take a really deep breath every 10 seconds or so, and it's messing with my sleep. This has been going on for about 4 years now. I did see a pulmonologist and had a PFT test done, which came out fine, but I'm still having issues. I've tried different medications, including Deriphyllin, with no success. Any advice on what to do next?
