I'm still coughing even after being off TB treatment for a couple of months. I never really stopped coughing since I was first diagnosed. I've been free of TB for two months now. I really want to get back to normal life. They checked my sputum again, and it came back negative. Im just wondering what I should do next?

View allI recently got an HRCT scan of my chest, and the results showed minimal ground glass haziness in the posterior parts of both lungs, especially in the dependent zones. It also mentioned some small lymph nodes near the trachea and a few other places. I'm trying to understand what all this means. Should I be worried?
minimal haziness and small lymph nodes, especially if not associated with other symptoms, often do not indicate serious problems but should still be monitored. If you have any chronic symptoms (like a cough, difficulty breathing, fever, or weight loss), or if the doctor suggests any follow-up, its important to follow their advice closely.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with asthma and is on ipravent and foracort nebulizers every day. Plus, she's got allergies to some meds like the mox group and managing her BP with telma40 and cilacar 10 mg. Her creatine level is at 1.2, so she's on nefrosave. I'm wondering if it's safe for her to get the COVID vaccine. Should she go for Covishield or Covaxin, or is there something else we need to consider given her health situation?

I've been coughing for such a long time, but all my tests are coming back normal. The AFB test was negative, and even the X-rays look fine. Why am I still coughing so much? What could be causing this? I'm starting to get really worried.
Probable diagnosis is asthma,Copd,allergies,bronchitis,pneumonia ,GERD,sinusitis,etc tobacco use etc .Patient is advised for CT chest, complete blood count ,esr and C-reactive protein tests.
