Question

I'm having a really hard time breathing at night and when I'm in places that aren't ventilated. It's been going on for a few months now. Should I be worried, and what might be causing this?

Question

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for the past month. I went to see a doctor who's been in practice for 21 years, and after some blood tests, including one for eosinophilia, I was told it's chronic bronchitis. I'm a bit worried about what medications to take and am really curious about any home remedies that might help. Could you give me some advice?

Question

My dad's been dealing with night fevers and body aches for over a month now, like 40 days, and we've done all sorts of tests but haven't found anything concrete. His chest X-ray didn't show much, and the sputum report came back normal. The doctor mentioned that in the second stage of TB, changes can be subtle and hard to catch on X-rays and sputum tests, so he started the second line of TB drugs based on a CECT Scan. I've consulted a few other doctors, and after looking at the report and scan, they're suggesting it might be a reactivation of tuberculosis. Could you take a look at this and tell me if this report is solid enough to confirm TB?
