I've always struggled with cough and cold, and I was diagnosed with TB when I was just 10, but I completed the full treatment back then. Now I'm 29, and my recent blood tests for CBC and ESR have me worried. My results show my eosinophils at 35, which I know isn't normal, and my WBC counts are off too. Could this be something serious or life-threatening? My doctor recommended taking Hetrazan 100 once a day for three months. Is this the right approach? I heard that high eosinophil counts aren't a disease themselves, but it's important to find the underlying cause. Could this be related to my past TB? Should I consider getting a second opinion from another doctor? I'm pretty anxious about all this. What should I do?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been coughing for a week, and after we went to see a physician, she was given pulmoclear tablets. But now, after taking them for two days, she's having trouble breathing and feels tightness in her chest. Could this be a side effect of the tablet? Theres no family history of asthma or any breathing issues, and she was perfectly fine before starting the medication. I read somewhere that breathing problems are a rare but serious side effect of pulmoclear. Could this be true?
It's possible that your mother is experiencing a side effect from Pulmoclear, as breathing difficulty and chest tightness can occur, though rarely. I recommend stopping the medication and contacting her physician immediately to discuss her symptoms and explore alternative treatments.

I'm a 27-year-old female and I've been frequently checking my SpO2 levels because of shortness of breath, which I've had since August. Most times, it reads between 96-98, but sometimes it dips to 93 for a second and then goes back to 95 or 97. Is this something normal? I'm also getting sweaty and don't have a fever or anything, but I am kind of worried. Can you help me understand if these are typical readings and if I should be concerned about these symptoms?
Normal,nothing to worry ok.
