I've been dealing with TB and started my meds back on March 13, 2018. At the beginning, my fever was really high, around 103, but now it's gone down to about 99 to 100. I'm wondering, when can I expect this fever to finally go away?

It's great that your fever has reduced. Typically, it can take a few weeks for the fever to completely subside during TB treatment, but it varies from person to person. Keep monitoring your temperature, and if it persists or worsens, be sure to consult your doctor.

I'm really concerned about something and I was hoping to get some advice. I've been inhaling steam directly from the stove for the last 45 days, about three times a day. Initially, doctors said steam wouldn't cause harm, but now my health is declining. I've even damaged my lungs, and it's been really painful. Could the steam be the reason? I feel like it's affecting me a lot and I'm worried. What should I do?

I'm wondering if there are any side effects I should watch out for after having a CT pulmonary angiogram a month ago? Also, can a pulmonary embolism develop sometime after the procedure? I've been having chest pain around the area under both my armpits, and it's got me a bit worried. Could this be related?
