I'm wondering if my x-ray is all good or if there's something wrong. Ive been having shortness of breath, but no fever, just feeling a bit weak. Can you help me understand what might be going on?

I'm really worried because I've had this dry cough for over three months now, and it's just not getting any better. I've tried antihistamines a few times, but they didn't seem to help at all. Every time I cough, it makes this loud noise that feels like it's coming from deep inside me. It's so disruptive, and it's really affecting my sleep. Do you have any idea what could be causing this or what I should do next?

I'm really worried about my dad, he's 67 and was diagnosed with TB after having pleural effusion in his right lung. He's been prescribed R cinex 600 once a day, pyrazinamide 750 two tablets at once daily, and combutol 1000 once daily by his pulmonologist. I'm just concerned about him taking both of those pyrazinamide tablets at the same time, like the doctor said, especially since he weighs 68 kg. Does this sound right to you?

yes you can take this medicine double the dose
