I'm starting to feel concerned because I keep getting this urge to take deep breaths every now and then, but I'm breathing normally in between. It's been happening for about 15 days now, and I'm not sure what's going on. Can you help me figure out what's happening?

View allI'm trying to understand the treatment for miliary tuberculosis and pulmonary tuberculosis. Are the medications used the same for both conditions, or do they require different prescriptions?

I've been dealing with a really annoying cold, cough, and itchy throat for about a week now. I've tried home remedies and even saw a doctor, but nothing seems to be working. The cough is so much worse at night than in the morning, and my throat always starts itching right before I cough. I'm currently taking Asthakind DX syrup and Cefpodoxime and Levocetirizine tablets, but it's still not getting better. Can you suggest any other medicine or treatment that might help?
no problem

I'm feeling really worried and confused right now. My wife, who's a doctor, talked to a pulmonologist who checked my scan report and said it's definitely TB, but I'm having a hard time accepting this. I live a healthy lifestyle, don't smoke or drink, so I'm doubtful if it's true. I haven't done the CBNAAT or culture test again yet, and I'm really unsure about jumping into treatment right away. Do you think I should get another doctor's opinion first before starting TB treatment?
Yes,patient is advised ATT for 6 months .Avoid smoking and alcohol cessation is advised to the patient.
