I've been dealing with a really bad cough for the last week. When I saw a few local doctors, they told me it's a throat infection, and I even got three injections, including steroids, but nothing has changed. I recently started using a pump, but still no sign of improvement. What should I do next?

View allI've had this cough for about six months now. I've been taking Sigcet M, Azithromycin, and Ceftriaxone, and also using cough syrup. I even checked my sputum three times, and it was negative each time. I did a CBNAAT test, and that was negative too. What should I do next? I'm really worried and looking for some advice.

What does it mean when my CT scan shows likely infective tuberculosis but my smear test came back negative? I'm not having any cough or fever. What's going on? I'm pretty confused about it all.
since smear is negative, there are least chances if tuberculosis

I'm really concerned because I was in the hospital a while back for serious shortness of breath. They did an X-ray and blood tests, and everything came back normal. But my doctor still put me on cefixime for 14 days and clonazepam for 30 days. It's been about 10 days now, and I thought I was getting better since my oxygen levels seem normal, but I'm still feeling short of breath and just really fatigued all the time. I can't run or do any exercise, and it's starting to worry me. How much longer might it take to really recover? Should I be thinking about trying any other meds or treatments?
Recovery is around 2-3 weeks.Continue all the medications.
