Is it normal to feel the same pain I had before my thoracentesis, even though it's been 36 hours since it was done? I'm worried the pleural fluid might have come back. Could tuberculosis be causing this effusion? The pain is really bothering me, and I'm waiting on my report, which won't be ready until next week. Can you give me some advice in the meantime?

I've been using my revolizer inhaler, and no matter what I try, I can't help but feel like some of the medicine is just sitting on my tongue and throat instead of getting into my lungs where it should be. I'm worried I'm doing something wrong, even though I've watched all the YouTube videos and followed them exactly. Is this a normal struggle, or do you think I'm missing something? Could you guide me on the right technique or point me to a helpful video or document?
