I've been on meds for pulmonary tuberculosis since January 2nd, but I stopped taking them on June 28th without checking in with my doctor. After about ten days, I started them again. Now, I've got some serious chest and stomach pain. Could this be because of how I stopped and started the meds? What should I do?

View allI'm having some trouble with my breathing latelyit feels like deep breaths are kinda stressing me out. And it gets worse when I'm in an air-conditioned space; it feels like I'm suffocating after just a few minutes. Do you have any idea what might be going on or any suggestions for what I should do?
That could be due to allergy,try to identify the allergen and avoid it, visit Physician for evaluation and appropriate management

I'm a 34-year-old woman and I've been struggling with wheezing, asthma, and a constant cough and cold for years now. I've been using Asthalin inhalers and syrup every day for my wheezing and Ascoril syrup for the cough, but it just feels like things are getting worse. I'm really worried and wondering what kind of treatment I should be looking into, or if there are certain doctors I should meet, especially if things get critical. Can you give me some advice?
It sounds like your condition may need a more comprehensive approach. I recommend visiting a pulmonologist to reassess your asthma management and explore options like long-term control medications (e.g., inhaled corticosteroids). If you're experiencing frequent worsening, consider visiting a hospital with a specialized respiratory unit, such as a multispecialty hospital with 24-hour emergency care. If the symptoms worsen, don't hesitate to seek immediate medical attention.
