I've been coughing up a little bit of blood in the mornings for the last few weeks and also noticed some blood in my left nostril. I got a chest x-ray and PNS x-ray done, and they came back normal. My CBC and ESR are also normal. Should I be worried about this, or could it be something minor? What should I do next?

View allI'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. What could be causing this, and should we be worried?

I'm dealing with mediastinal lymph node TB and I was wondering about my situation. I've been through CECT and EBUS, and the size was initially 7cm x 3cm. I used to have a fever, but thankfully that's gone now. However, I'm still coughing quite a bitaround 15 to 20 times a day. I've been on treatment for three and a half months, and my doctor told me it would be an eight-month-long process. Is this typical? I'm currently abroad, so I'm trying to figure out when to repeat the CECT. We've already done it twice since we had to travel, but the size hadn't reduced two months ago. Can you give me some guidance on this?
repeat cect after 6 months
