I've been dealing with a bit of a concern ever since I had COVID-19 last April. I got through it in about a week without needing to go to the hospital or taking any heavy-duty meds, but now a couple of times a day, I notice a light wheezing in my chest. It usually happens in the morning when I wake up, and to get rid of it, I end up coughing hard, which brings up a chunk of phlegm. I dont have a constant cough, only when I try to clear the wheezing. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be worried about it?

View allI've been taking asthalin pills and accidentally took 4mg instead of 2mg for 35 days. Now I'm having some weird symptoms like a fast heartbeat and shivering. I've switched to using an inhaler for 34 days but those symptoms haven't gone away. I keep waking up suddenly when I'm about to fall asleep, and it's freaking me out a bit. Any advice on how I can deal with these side effects?

Hey, just wanted a second opinion about my abdominal tuberculosis treatment. My doctor stopped RHE FD and Pyzina and now has me on R Cinex 600 and Moximac. My uric acid level is 12.7. About 1.5 years ago, I had extra pulmonary TB, and despite finishing 9 months of AKT4, TB's been diagnosed again after a recent CT scan because I had upper abdomen pain. I dont have any TB symptoms or side effects from meds this time. Is the treatment plan right? How can I contact online for more details?
Continue same treatment as advised by the physician.

I'm a bit worried about something I noticed on my chest x-ray. It showed fibrolinear densities in the lungs, and I'm trying to understand what this means. Just a little backgroundI had TB about 10 years ago and went through the 6-month treatment for it. Now, I'm about to have a pre-employment physical exam, and I didn't mention my TB history during the interview. Should I be concerned about this affecting my exam results or my job prospects?
Fibrolinear densities on your chest X-ray likely represent old scar tissue from your previous TB infection and treatment 10 years ago. These findings are generally not active disease but could raise questions during a pre-employment exam if not explained. Its best to clarify your history if asked, as treated TB is typically not a barrier to employment.
