I've been having a fever, sweet-tasting sputum, and some bowel issues lately. I'm currently taking medication for tuberculosis every day and haven't had any side effects, but now these symptoms have cropped up over the past week. Can you help me understand what's going on?

I'm a 25-year-old female and have been dealing with asthma since 2005. I've been using Budamate 200 mg and then switched to Formonide Novacart 200 mg since 2012. Now, I'm facing an issue because Formonide Novacart isn't available in the market anymore. I'm wondering what alternative medicine I could use or is it best to see a pulmonologist to discuss other options?

I'm really concerned about this shortness of breath I've been having for the past 10 days. My oxygen saturation is between 97 and 98, but I don't feel it when I'm walking quickly and I sleep just fine. I had mild COVID symptoms back in October 2020, and the shortness of breath was there until December, but everything's been alright for the past 3.5 months. I even got a CT scan through my pulmonologist, and everything seemed okay. But what's weird is if my mind is busy, I don't notice it, and if I try to take a deep breath on purpose, I just can't. What might be going on?
