I've been experiencing a need to take long breaths frequently, mostly during the night after dinner, but sometimes in the morning and during the day too. It's not constant, but it has happened about 23 times over the last year and lasts for about 10 to 15 days before going away. I'm really concerned about this. I also have issues with sudden and continuous sneezing. What could be causing these symptoms?

I've been dealing with a wet cough for the last three years, but I haven't noticed any other symptoms like fever, unexpected weight loss, or feeling sick generally. I'm really concerned whether this could be tuberculosis. Could you suggest what tests I should consider for diagnosing TB? Also, does the Quantiferon Gold TB test effectively diagnose TB with just one test?

yes can help and do CBNAAT

I'm dealing with a persistent cough and dust allergy, and with the lockdown, it's hard to see a doctor right now. I'm thinking about taking Montek LC tablets until April 14th. Is that safe? Could there be any side effects I should be aware of? Would really appreciate your advice on this!

Montek LC is an antihistamine and leukotriene receptor antagonist, often used to treat allergies and asthma. While generally considered safe, taking Montek LC without consulting a doctor may not be advisable. If you have a pre-existing prescription for Montek LC, you can continue taking it as directed. However, if you're taking it without a prescription or for an extended period, you should be aware of potential side effects, such as: - Headache - Dizziness - Nausea - Diarrhea - Stomach pain

Why am I still feeling this pain? I had a pleural effusion back in November 2017, and had thoracentesis done twice. All the tests came back negative and my doctor said it was viral. Now it's March 2018, and I'm still experiencing pain starting from my back moving up to my side and into my chest, especially when I cough, yawn, or take a deep breath. I'm really worried about why it's not getting better. Any ideas?

take tablet zerodol and tablet pantoprazole for 3 days
