I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with Tuberculosis for the past two months, and although she was discharged from the hospital two weeks ago, she's still struggling. The doctors diagnosed her with mycobacterium tuberculosis and recommended she take Akurvit4 in the morning after meals, along with Benadon and some cough syrup. They mentioned it could take 12 weeks for her cough to improve, but it's been a little over two weeks, and she's still having cough and low-grade fevers. Is this normal? How long should I wait to see more improvement? She's had only a slight relief, but I'm getting concerned because it's not what we were hoping for.

View allI've been noticing a weird sound coming from my lungs every time I breathe. It's really thin, and sometimes I have a cough too. Whenever I work hard, I get short of breath. I haven't had any chest pain or noticed any blood, but the sound in my breath and the shortness of breath are concerning. What do you think might be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing mild respiratory issues, such as wheezing or reactive airways, which can cause shortness of breath and a dry cough, especially with physical exertion. I recommend seeing a doctor to assess your lung function and rule out conditions like asthma or other respiratory concerns.

Ive been having trouble breathing for the past few weeks, and being an asthma patient, Ive been using my inhaler and nebulizer like usual, but this time they dont seem to help. I recently got a chest X-ray, and while it looks okay, I noticed it mentioned PCOD. I also had a COVID infection back in June 2021. Im really worried and not sure what to do next. Any advice?
