I've been having some mucus in my respiratory tract, and it's a bit weird because there's no cough or fever. But every morning, I notice this sound when I'm breathing in, and it's really uncomfortable. I'm wondering what might be causing this and if there's something I should be doing about it?

I've been on my TB meds for nearly two weeks now, and recently I've started having really bad coughing fits, especially when I'm lying down. This wasn't happening before I started the treatment. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

I've been dealing with some thick sputum lately, and it's got this slightly brown tint to it. I had a chest X-ray done, and it came back normal, but I'm still a bit worried because I had a cold about three weeks ago. Do you think I should be concerned about what's causing it, or is it just leftover from the cold?

I've been yawning a lot and feeling like I constantly need to take deep breaths, almost like I can't get enough air. It's really weird and a little worrying. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it be related to stress or something else?
