When might I start gaining weight again during my TB treatment? I've lost about 15 kg since starting the medication and it's been almost 29 days now. I'm really worried. Will I be able to gain the weight back or is this going to be a permanent thing?

View allI recently had a chest X-ray and it came back saying that there are prominent bilateral hilar shadows. I'm a bit worried and would really like to understand what this means. Could you explain it to me?
Bilateral Hilar Shadows being prominent on your chest X-ray typically indicates enlargement or prominence of the lymph nodes in the hilar region of the lungs, which can be caused by various conditions such as tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, lymphoma, or other inflammatory or infectious diseases, and further testing or evaluation by a specialist is usually required to determine the underlying cause.

I'm having some trouble with my breathing and was wondering if it's okay to use a Duolin inhaler. Are there any home remedies you could suggest for a slight breathing issue?
Duolin inhaler is typically prescribed for conditions like asthma or COPD, and should only be used under a doctor's guidance. For mild breathing problems, you can try inhaling steam, staying hydrated, and using a humidifier. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I've been dealing with this leftover issue in my lungs after having the flu for a few days. It's day 5 now, and I feel okay overall, but I have this annoying frog in my throat. It used to be a sore throat, but now it only hurts when I cough. The big concern is when I try to inhale, I can't fully expand my lungs, and I'm wheezing when I breathe out. Could this be acute bronchitis? Do you think I need to see a doctor about it?
Seroflo inhaler sos is advised to the pt for wheezing.
