I'm taking gastric tablets like Rabiros IT, and I'm also on tuberculosis medication such as RCinex, Combutol, and Pyzina. I'm a bit worried about whether the gastric tablets will affect my TB treatment. Can they interfere with each other?

I'm really not feeling well and it's mostly in my chest area, so I went to get it checked out at an MRI center. They did a CT scan, and I'm looking for some feedback on it. Could you take a look and let me know what's going on?

My dad's been diagnosed with stage 3 COPD. His breathing rate is 84 and his SpO2 is a bit above 90. He's feeling extremely weak and he's down to only 40 kg. The doctor did a CT scan and confirmed it's TB. I'm really worried about his condition and what the next steps should be. What kind of treatment can help him, and is there anything specific I should be doing to support his recovery?

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with asthma since 2010, and now it seems like his condition is getting worse. He's using inhalers, rotahalers, and other meds every day, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Is there any real cure for this? Plus, he's been having skin issues that I think are from the side effects of all the meds. His overall health is not great either. What can we do to help improve his situation?
