Sometimes I notice my breath seems to pause for a moment, just for a second, and it feels really strange when it happens. Should I be worried about this? Is there something wrong with me?

I've been having shortness of breath for about a week now, and it seems to be getting worse every day. I saw a physician last week who thought it might be related to acidity, so I took medication for that, but it hasn't really helped my breathing at all. It gets particularly bad at night, although once I'm asleep, it's not an issue. I've noticed that as I become more aware of my breathing, the problem seems to intensify. I've got a bit of a cough in my throat and occasionally my nose gets blocked, which only adds to the difficulty. I end up having to breathe through my mouth and yawn a lot just to feel like I'm getting enough air. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

Since the medication for acidity hasn't helped, I recommend revisiting your doctor to reassess the cause. Given that the symptoms are persisting and worsening, further investigation is important to rule out conditions like asthma, allergies, or heartlung problems. Track your symptoms: Keeping a diary of your symptoms (when they occur, their severity, any triggers) can be helpful for your doctor to get a clearer picture. Consider seeing a specialist: If your physician is uncertain, you might want to see a pulmonologist (lung specialist) or an ENT specialist (for sinus or throat issues).

So, I've been to see a chest specialist, and he thinks I have TB because I'm dealing with pleurisy. He hasn't done any reports but is giving me medicine for it. Is this normal? I also did a TB Gold test, and it came back positive with a gamma radiation level of 0.45. Does this mean I definitely have TB? I'm a bit worried and would love your input.

yes you gave tb
