I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with a dry cough for about five days now and she's on Doxofylline tablets and Forcef 500. The thing is, she just can't seem to eat anything because it makes her feel nauseous, and she's getting so weak. Ive heard paneer might be okay to give her, but Im not sure what foods are best right now. Could you help me figure out what she should be eating?

View allI was at a government hospital last month because I was losing weight and having a lot of vomiting. After a month of tests, they started me on tuberculosis meds. Some doctors told me I have TB, but others weren't sure. I'm really confused because I don't have the usual TB symptoms like coughing. I'm worried because it's been 21 days on the medication, but the vomiting hasn't stopped. Could you help me figure out if I really have TB or what's going on?
do CBNAAT to confirm the TB , for vomiting take tab vasograin

I'm getting ready for a medical exam for my visa and I'm really worried because I'm a smoker. I usually go through about two to three packs a day, but after hearing about the x-ray exam, I got pretty anxious and decided I need to quit. The cravings have been intense, so I'm down to a maximum of five a day for now. Im wondering, do these changes or any lung patches I have increase the chances of my visa being rejected? I could use some advice.
It's great that you're trying to reduce your smoking, but lung patches can sometimes raise concerns during medical exams. However, cutting down to 5 cigarettes a day is a positive step. It's important to be honest during the examination and follow your healthcare provider's advice. Good luck with your visa process, and continue working towards quitting!

I'm a bit worried because last week I started having watery eyes and sneezing, but no cough at that time. The sneezing and watery eyes stopped a couple of days ago, and now I've developed a cough. The thing is, it's not like a regular coughit's neither wet nor dry, and it doesnt happen all the time. My oxygen levels are usually around 98, but they've dropped to 96, 97, and 96. When I lie down, it even goes to 93, 94, and 95. Should I consider getting an X-ray? Also, I have a history of GERD problems. What do you suggest?
Azeflo nasal spray is advised for 7 days ,7ml in both the nostrils.Also tab pan d orally,before food for 14 days and syrup sucralfate 10 ml thrice daily for 14 days is advised to the patient.
