I've been dealing with shortness of breath for about 10 days now. It gets worse when I'm working or even when I'm resting. It's kind of annoying because this has been happening on and off every few months. I went to a chest physician and he said everything seems fine after doing a spirometry test and a chest x-ray, which were both normal. I'm confused and a bit worried because I still feel breathless. Could there be something else going on that's causing this problem?

View allI'm really worried about my brother. His oxygen levels are around 90, and he's got a cough in his lungs, but all his tests for COVID, typhoid, and malaria came back negative. He's been admitted to the hospital and is on oxygen, but his levels aren't improving. What should we consider doing next?

I've been on ATT for pulmonary Kochs diagnosed 3 months ago. My initial chest X-ray looked fine, but the CT scan showed the infection. The Montox test was positive with a 20mm induration. For my latest review, I had a chest X-ray, and it showed prominent bronchovascular markings. Can you tell me what this means? Also, I've been experiencing leg pain, especially in my knees and ankles. Is this something I should be worried about?
Do not panic it takes time complete the entire course of ATT and visit your Physician regularly for followup,consume balanced diet and stay hydrated.
