I've been having breathing problems for the past couple of years. My doctor said it's bronchitis, but I'm really worried because when I try to inhale, sometimes it feels like the air just doesn't reach my lungs. I have to try four or five times to get a full breath, and lately, I've been feeling a mild chest pain along with a cough and this uncomfortable pressure in my chest that makes me anxious. It even makes my body feel cold. Could you please tell me what's going on and what kind of treatment I should look into?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been on the AKT4 kit for her pulmonary TB, and ever since she started the medicine, she's been feeling completely exhausted, both morning and night. She's also experiencing dizziness and itchy skin at night, which is unusual for her. These symptoms only appeared after she began her treatment. Could these be side effects from the TB medication? Should we consider adjusting her dosage? She also has high blood pressure, but no diabetes. What do you think we should do?

give her high nutritious food

I've been noticing that every time I drink hot tea, I end up coughing a lot. It's been happening for quite a while now. Also, my wife was recently diagnosed with a TB gold infection that's positive. I'm pretty worried and wondering what could possibly be going on here. Could this all be related somehow? What should we do?

Kindly, go for TB screening

I've been dealing with post-COVID issues and I'm really worried. Had COVID about six weeks ago, recovered at home, but after 15 days started having breathing difficulties and fatigue. The first doctor gave me the Foracart inhaler, but it caused a throat infection, so I stopped and took antibiotics instead. Then I got really bad allergy symptoms like sneezing and a runny nose, and my shortness of breath got worse. I changed doctors and they tested my IGe and PFT. The PFT came back normal, but my IGe is 3050. I was given Momeflo Montek BL for a month. Should I be concerned about this? And how long might it take for me to start feeling better?

take the medicine atleast for 10 to 15 days.avoid allergens like dust
