I'm really worried about my loved one who has Covid-19, diabetes, and high blood pressure all at once. They're also having trouble with breathing. Are there specific fruits that might help in their recovery, considering all these health issues happening together? Just want to make sure we're doing everything we can to support their health.

I'm really worried about my wife's health. She had blood in her vomit, and an X-ray showed an infection. Our general doctor advised a CT scan, which revealed a cavity in her lungs. We did a sputum test to check for TB, but it came back negative. While she's undergoing further checks, I'm just really anxious to understand what other tests might help pinpoint the root cause of this. She's 31, so any insight would be really helpful.

I'm just getting over the flu, but now I've got this dull pain in my lower left rib area. It's mostly at the front, but I sometimes feel it at the back, and it gets really sharp when I lie down or take deep breaths. I'm also noticing that I'm getting out of breath really quickly and need to take deeper breaths than normal. What could be going on here?

I've been dealing with TB and started my meds back on March 13, 2018. At the beginning, my fever was really high, around 103, but now it's gone down to about 99 to 100. I'm wondering, when can I expect this fever to finally go away?

It's great that your fever has reduced. Typically, it can take a few weeks for the fever to completely subside during TB treatment, but it varies from person to person. Keep monitoring your temperature, and if it persists or worsens, be sure to consult your doctor.
