I'm really worried about something I just found out. Last year, I was in a car accident, and nobody told me anything about my chest x-ray results. I looked at the report today, and it mentions things like biapical pleural thickening, perihilar interstitial prominence, and mild hyperaeration. I have no idea what any of this means. I was fine until recently, but now I've started coughing up phlegm, and I get short of breath when I walk up stairs, although it goes away quickly. Other than that, I feel healthy. Can you help ease my mind and tell me what I should do next?

View allI'm really worried about my health. I've been taking my TB meds for six months now, but my latest X-ray still shows that I have tuberculosis. What should I do next? Is this normal, or should I be concerned?
If your X-ray still shows signs of tuberculosis after 6 months of treatment, we'll reassess your treatment plan. It may involve extending your medication course or switching to a different regimen. We'll work together to ensure the best approach to fully eliminate the infection.

I'm 41 and have been dealing with asthma since I was a kid, along with urticaria and GERD. My pulmonologist has me on Montek AB and Formoflo 250mg Asthalin rotohaler, but I recently had an echocardiogram showing mild PAH. They wanted a second opinion, so a senior cardiologist did a 2D echocardiogram and luckily, it came back normal, no PAH. But I still struggle with breathing I need to take deep breaths a lot and find myself yawning frequently. When I'm talking, I often feel short of breath. Plus, the Formoflo inhaler seems to make my heart race and gives me palpitations. Is there any other inhaler that doesn't cause these side effects? What do you recommend?
Patient is advised to continue all the medications.
