Question 1

I'm really worried and need some advice. So, there's this situation where someone was treated for MDR for about a year and a half with pulmonary TB. Now, it looks like they're also dealing with lymph node TB. I'm curious, could this mean there's a chance of having MDR again?

Accepted Answer

Yes.

Question 2

I'm feeling a bit anxious about my oxygen levels. After having COVID, I've noticed they fluctuate quite a bit. For example, when I check with a pulse oximeter, it sometimes shows 92 on one finger and 97 on another. What could be causing such a difference? Is this something I should be worried about, or is it normal for oxygen levels to act like this after recovering from COVID?

Accepted Answer

Thats normal not related to COVID,just rub your finger re check it again

Question 3

I'm really concerned about my wife. Back in 2020, she got Covid, and ever since then, she's been having these breathing issues. It's not constant but comes and goes, like she's fine for a few days, and then suddenly, she feels breathless with chest pain and heaviness. We've done all the testslike for asthma and chest X-raysand everything came back clear. We even tried an ayurvedic doctor who suggested it might be due to some cough in her chest, which he said was odd since the X-rays were normal. Strangely, his medicine seemed to help for a while. But now, the problem is back, and I doubt it's cough-related because she doesnt have a cold or fever. I'm at a loss and would really appreciate any suggestions or advice on what else we can do to figure this out. Could it be something post-Covid related that we're missing?

Accepted Answer

there might be some post covid issues. try yoga, breathing exercises. if still problem isnot resolved consult a pulmonologist
