I'm really worried because my mom tested positive for COVID two months ago, but then she turned negative after two weeks. Now she just had a CT scan of her lungs, and I'm anxious about the results. Can you take a look at the reports and let me know if there's anything off or if we should be concerned?

View allI'm really worried about my TB treatment. My first doctor prescribed AKT4, but I found out it might be less than what's needed for my weight, which is 67kg. So I talked to another pulmonologist who recommended I switch to DOTS and do the full 6-month course. I've already taken AKT4 for a month before switching. I'm just concerneddid the switch affect my treatment at all? Should I be tested for multi-drug resistant TB?
no it will not effect . continue the same treatment

I've noticed my wife has been dealing with breathlessness for the last 4 years. She often feels like she needs to take deep breaths just to feel comfortable, even when she's just sitting around doing nothing. Sometimes, these episodes of breathlessness disappear for days.

I'm feeling like there's bone cracking or nerve tearing in the center of my chest when I sneeze, even when it's not too forceful. My chest feels heavy, I'm constantly fatigued, and I find it a bit hard to breathe almost every day. This has been going on for about two years now. I stopped exercising a while ago and my lifestyle is super sedentary. I get tired really quickly, like just from climbing stairs while carrying a bit of weight. Sometimes when I sneeze, this super sticky heavy transparent cough comes out straight away without just staying in my mouth. Should I be worried about these symptoms? What could be causing this?
Salbutamol inhaler and budesonide 200 sos is advised for breathing difficulty.
