I'm really worried about my husband's chest pain. The doctor said it's a lung allergy and put him on a one-month course. But he still feels a tightness in his chest every day, and he's really weak. He's had heart checkups like ECG and BP, and everything seems fine. I'm sharing his reports. Could you help me understand what's going on with him?

My chest X-ray showed prominent bronchiovascular markings in both lungs and I'm scheduled for surgery under general anesthesia on Wednesday should I be concerned about how this might affect the procedure?

Prominent BVM can indicate chronic inflammation—inform anesthetist; surgery can proceed with proper precautions.

My wife's been dealing with a persistent cough for about 15 days, and she had a fever at the beginning, but it went away after 3 days. The same thing happened around this time last year, but back then, it was just a cough that stuck around for a month without the fever. We saw a doctor, and he ran some testsCT Chest showed consolidation in the right upper chest, and last years X-ray showed the same thing while the cough was there, but it went back to normal after a month. Her lab results came back with HB10, ESR99, TLC 3800, Platelets 1.1 lakh. Sputum AFB is negative from 3 samples, but the QuantiFeron Gold test is positive. There are no signs of weight loss or appetite changes. The doctor suspects it might be TB and started her on a regimen with Rifampicin, INH, Pyrazinamide, Ethambutol, and Pyridoxine. I'm just wondering because this issue occurred last year and now again but not in between. Should we stick with the treatment plan? Any insights would be appreciated.

yes it is better to take tuberculosis medicine, rather than complicating the condition
