I'm really worried about my boyfriendhe's been experiencing shortness of breath almost every day, and now his sleep is getting disrupted by this choking cough and cold. He even catches a cold easily in the summer. It's been really rough for the past 23 days, and on top of that, he has indigestion. What can I do to help him or any advice on how we should handle this situation?

View allI recently had a TB test and the results mentioned something called "tenting of the left hemidiaphragm." I'm curious and a bit worried about what might have caused this. Is it something serious, and could it be a sign of TB?
Tenting of the left hemidiaphragm can be caused by various factors such as inflammation, injury, or infection. While it may not directly indicate tuberculosis (TB), it could suggest other conditions affecting the diaphragm. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation to determine the cause.

I'm dealing with some psychological issues like anxiety and depression for the past 5 years, but I finally managed to overcome them about a year ago. Recently, though, I've been having breathlessness, and my doctor prescribed Medrol 4 mg to take every morning at 10 a.m. However, after taking it, I feel really uncomfortable, tired, and unsatisfied. I'm worried if Medrol is harmful to me, should I continue using it, or maybe stop? What other options are there for addressing my breathing issues?
It's understandable that you're feeling uncomfortable with Medrol (a corticosteroid). While it can help with inflammation, long-term use may cause side effects like tiredness and mood changes. Its important to discuss your concerns with your doctor, as they may suggest alternative treatments or adjust your medication. For your breathing issues, further evaluation might be needed to identify the cause, and your doctor can guide you on the best next steps.
