It's been a year now on the anti-TB treatment, and I'm really hoping to understand how things are going. I've attached the chest X-ray report, and I'd love if you could take a look and let me know what it means. Do you think things are progressing well?

I'm having this breathlessness for the last three days, and its really starting to worry me. I've got this weird feeling of postnasal drip happening but no cold or cough. There's just a tiny bit of white mucus, really not much. I've been taking some meds for a couple of days now, but they don't seem to be helping much. In fact, it feels even worse after I eat or lie down. What's going on here? Is there something else I should try or be concerned about?

I'm currently dealing with bronchitis and take Combitide125, two puffs daily, to manage it. I've just gotten over a fever, but now I can't seem to shake off this persistent cough. I'm wondering if it's safe to start taking an expectorant like Ascoril along with my inhalers. Is that advisable, or should I avoid mixing them?

yes
