View allI've been told that I breathe heavily while I'm sleeping, and it seems like my oxygen levels and pulse rate drop during those times. Specifically, my oxygen saturation goes from 99 to 91, and my pulse rate drops from 88 to 68. Eventually, they both go back to normal, which is 88 for my pulse and 99 for oxygen saturation. This pattern happens multiple times throughout the night. Could you help me understand what might be going on with these symptoms?
Probable diagnosis is obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with a dry cough for about four months now since having COVID. I've already had a chest X-ray and a CT scan, and both showed everything is normal. I'm a bit worried because the cough just won't go away. Could you recommend a good medicine or treatment to help with this?

The pus from my cervical TB infection was drained but the lump hasn't gone away yet. The lab confirmed it's tuberculosis and I'm on FORECOX (Isoniazid, Pyrazinamide, Ethambutol) twice daily. Should I get any other tests done to check if the treatment is working or if there's more going on
It's important to monitor the progress of your cervical TB treatment and the lymph node after draining the pus. While the drug regimen you're on (FORECOX) is effective, additional tests may be needed to confirm the effectiveness of the treatment and rule out any other potential complications.
