I've been treated for TB for two months now. I've started smoking and masturbating again, and I'm worried if these habits could have any negative impact on my treatment. Should I be concerned about this affecting my recovery?

I'm having some troubles with my breathing and I'm feeling really worried. It's like I can't take a deep breath properly and my brain feels like it's not functioning properly. I've been feeling constantly tired and my head feels pressured, almost like the oxygen isn't reaching my brain even though I'm breathing normally. It's a consistent issue that just doesn't go away. Could there be something wrong with how the oxygen is getting to my brain? I'm really looking for some guidance on this. Please help me understand what's going on.

I recently got my chest x-ray report and it mentions some unclear haziness in the left cardiophrenic angle region and a prominent epicardiac fat pad, along with patchy infiltration. The rest of the lung fields look clear, and the cardio thoracic ratio is normal. But it also mentions that both hila are prominent and my bony thorax shows no significant abnormality. The domes of my diaphragm are well outlined. Theyve advised clinical correlation and I'm not entirely sure what all this means. Should I be worried about these findings, especially the haziness and the prominent hila? What steps should I take next?
