I've been dealing with shortness of breath for the past year, and it's getting worse lately. It's gotten to the point where I'm out of breath just walking around my house. What could be causing this, and is it something I should be worried about?

I'm experiencing a lot of coughing, especially at night, and it's been happening for several days now. I know I have allergic rhinitis and asthma, and I usually find relief when I use my Livolin inhaler. Sometimes, I take Montair LC if I really need it. Could you give me some guidance on what's going on or what I should do?

I'm really curious about whether or not hookah is harmful. I've tried it seven times, and I want to know if it's bad for me so I can stop if needed. Could someone explain if there's potential harm involved?

I've been diagnosed with TB lymphadenitis and I'm a bit confused about my medication routine. Right now, I take Rcnex in the morning, then Ethambutol after breakfast, and Pyrazinamide after lunch. Initially, my fever was quite constant, and I had to take four paracetamol tablets a day, but now I just need one. I'm worried because a drug sensitivity test wasn't done. Is this the right way to be taking my meds, and how many days should it usually take for the fever to go away? Also, should I be considering a biopsy anytime soon?
