I'm having some trouble with my breathing and I already tried the pantosec d gas tablet that my doctor recommended. I also saw a pulmonologist, had a chest X-ray and an ECG, and both came out normal. There didn't seem to be any problems, so no meds were given. Do you think I might still need any medication or other tests?

I sometimes feel a heaviness in my breathing, especially in the evenings. But when I try running or jogging for around 10 minutes, I don't get breathless or experience a shortness of breath. Is it possible that I have asthma? Im wondering if people with asthma can still run like that. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

I'm currently on ATT since July 7th because I got drug-induced hepatitis from pyrizinamide. The treatment has been going on without pyrizinamide now, but today I noticed some swelling on my face around both sides of my nose in the cheek area. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
