I've been having some strange breathing issues lately, and it's kind of worrying. It all started last Friday, August 4th, after I ate something that made me sick, and I ended up throwing up. Ever since then, my breathing has felt weird. I feel a bit short of breath, and it seems hard to take a deep breath. I'm feeling really stressed about it. What could be going on? Should I be concerned?

I'm currently dealing with extra pulmonary tuberculosis and have developed left pleural effusion. I'm now in the fourth month of my continuous phase of ATT. These days, I'm taking Macox plus 600 and Ecox 1000mg tablets daily. I'm wondering, is it okay to continue with these medications for the rest of the ATT course? Would really appreciate your guidance on this!

yes you should continue those medications
