I'm worried about my dad. He had TB last year, and we finished his treatment in April. But now it looks like the TB is coming back. Could you recommend a really good doctor?

I'm having some trouble with a bad cough since yesterday, and now I'm experiencing more chest pain. Today, it's even getting hard to breathe, and there's a wheezing sound when I breathe. My sputum has turned yellowish-green, and I'm breathing rapidly. It's really uncomfortable, and I've never had any history of asthma before. Could this be asthma or just an allergic reaction? What should I do? Please help me figure this out.

I've been diagnosed with bronchitis after checking my x-ray, and I've taken a lot of antibiotics, but now I'm having pain on the lower right side of my chest. The weird thing is I don't have any cough at all. I've just started taking Prentiss 800. What should I do next? Any advice would really help.
