I'm experiencing some concerning symptoms after being prescribed certain medicines for my breathing issues and high IGE levels. I've been taking Omnacortil, starting at 40 mg and tapering down, but after finishing the 30 mg dose yesterday, I decided not to take it today because I've been having blurred vision, confusion, and feeling really weak. I've also stopped taking Histafree M two days ago, and I finished my course of L Cin 500. The only thing I'm still taking is Zincovit. Could these symptoms be caused by the medication, or is there something else going on? I'm really worried and would love some advice.

I'm really concerned because I've been smoking cigarettes for over 5 years now, and I've started having problems with a persistent cough and phlegm. I'm wondering if there's anything I could do to help with these issues besides quitting smoking?

I've been smoking since 2015, going through about 30-35 packs a week, but I quit around 9-10 months ago. Lately, I've been having these chest pains and it's kind of hard to breathe sometimes. What should I do about that?

I'm wondering how long a fever might last when you're going through tuberculosis treatment. Is it normal to have a fever for a while, and how severe can it get? At what point should I expect the fever to stop?

Fever during tuberculosis treatment can occur, especially in the initial phase, as your body adjusts to the medication. Typically, it should subside within a few weeks of starting the treatment. If the fever persists beyond that, it's important to consult your doctor for further evaluation.
