I've been dealing with a persistent cough for the past month. I went to see a doctor who's been in practice for 21 years, and after some blood tests, including one for eosinophilia, I was told it's chronic bronchitis. I'm a bit worried about what medications to take and am really curious about any home remedies that might help. Could you give me some advice?

Could you help me understand if a normal chest X-ray taken two months after being around someone with TB means I definitely don't have pulmonary TB? Also, can a chest X-ray reliably catch pulmonary TB, or should I be doing other tests? I'm a bit worried and just want to be sure.
Yes,chest x-ray and sputum for AFB and microscopy is advised to the patient for the diagnosis of tb.

I've just got my health check-up done, and while most things are in the normal range, my eosinophils count is a bit high at 11.6. I've started taking banocide tablets for the past couple of days. Lately, I've begun feeling a little uneasy when I breathe. I did an ECG and chest X-ray, and those came back normal. Do you think the banocide will help with the breathing issue, or should I be looking into other medication?
Yes, continue same treatment.
