My wife is 26 and got COVID-19 back in September, which later led to pneumonia. The pneumonia just wouldn't go away, and after some tests, we found out it's actually Pulmonary TB. She's been on a 6-month medication course for the past 3 months. But she's so weak all the time and vomits a lot, like, almost every time she eats, she throws up in about 30 minutes. How long do you think this will last? It's honestly really worrying.

I'm trying to figure out if my lungs are healthy. Are there any specific tests I should take? I have an oximeter, and it shows readings of 95 and above. What do these numbers actually mean?

I'm currently dealing with bronchitis and take Combitide125, two puffs daily, to manage it. I've just gotten over a fever, but now I can't seem to shake off this persistent cough. I'm wondering if it's safe to start taking an expectorant like Ascoril along with my inhalers. Is that advisable, or should I avoid mixing them?

yes
