I've been dealing with some allergy problems lately, and when I saw a doctor, they had me do an allergy test and a chest X-ray. They mentioned there might be an infection in my chest. I decided to consult another doctor who requested a Montoux (Mantoux) test, and it came back with a 14mm result. I'm a bit worried about what all this could mean. Could you help me understand these results and the possible implications?

I'm having some trouble after using Kala hit spray on my balcony; I might've used too much. Ever since then, I've been having breathing problems and discomfort. I saw a cardiologist who ran several tests, like hemoglobin, thyroid, chest x-ray, and echo, but they all came back fine. Even with that, I'm still feeling uneasy and it's hard to breathe. What should I do?

Normal,nothing to worry ok.

I'm really concerned because I've been having chest pain almost non-stop for about a month now. Plus, my cough just keeps coming back every couple of days. Things have gotten worse since I've now developed a fever and my cough has phlegm with it. What could be going on with me?
