So, I recently did a TB Mantoux test and my lymphocytes count is 46. The result mentioned something like Microscopic Induration at 3235 and there's erythema present. My doctor said something about seeing a pulmonology specialist for future options. Given all this, do you think this will affect my chances of getting a visa? It's really stressing me out.

I've had a really bad cough for the last couple of days, and there's a wheezing sound when I breathe sometimes. I've been taking Rex cof syrup, but it hasn't helped at all. I did a COVID test, and thankfully, it's negative. I'm just wondering if there's any other medicine or treatment youd recommend for this cough?

I'm dealing with tuberculosis and currently taking my TB meds three times a day. I've been wondering if it's okay to take Doxycycline alongside my AntiTB meds. Is it safe to mix these, or should I be concerned about any interactions?

Yes, doxycycline can be used.
