Question 1

I'm in my 7th month of yb treatment, and I've had some allergy issues. My doctor gave me budamate with lupihalet, but ever since I started them, my breathing feels worse. Earlier, breathing wasn't much of a problem, and I had foracort inhalet at home, but I never really needed to use it. I'm also on Rcinex 600 for my TB. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

Question 2

My wife is 26 and got COVID-19 back in September, which later led to pneumonia. The pneumonia just wouldn't go away, and after some tests, we found out it's actually Pulmonary TB. She's been on a 6-month medication course for the past 3 months. But she's so weak all the time and vomits a lot, like, almost every time she eats, she throws up in about 30 minutes. How long do you think this will last? It's honestly really worrying.

Accepted Answer

drug induced side effect  and medication review

Question 3

I just got my x-ray results back and it says there's prominence of broncho markings in both of my lungs. I'm currently dealing with bronchitis and taking medication for it. Is there a chance this condition could be reversed? Also, I decided to quit smoking right after seeing the x-ray. Would love to know your thoughts on all this!
