I've been dealing with asthma and currently, Im using inhaled corticosteroids for it. I dont have any other health issues going on, so I'm wondering if it's safe for me to get the Covishield vaccine. Is there anything I should be worried about with the combination of the vaccine and my asthma treatment?

I'm currently undergoing TB treatment, and it's been about three weeks. I've been feeling really weak and lethargic, I've lost some weight, and I'm experiencing fever, chills, and a tight feeling in my chest. Also, my alkaline phosphate level is up to 129 uL. I'm just wondering if there's a way to get better results or faster relief with my treatment. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

I've been dealing with this really bad cough for almost 20 days now. It's mostly at night and comes with mild yellow sputum. Sometimes, the coughing gets so bad that I feel breathless, and its tough to even sit up straight. I havent had any fever, body pain, or other symptoms like COVID-19, and I havent traveled or been in contact with anyone who could've been sick. Ive tried nebulizers, steam, gargling, but nothing seems to help. What could be causing this, and how can I find some relief?

do a chest xray
