I've been experiencing this sudden shortness of breath over the last few months, and it's starting to really worry me. It comes out of nowhere, and I can't seem to pinpoint why it's happening. What could be causing this, and should I see someone about it?

View allI've been having this really intense pain on the upper right side of my chest when I wake up in the morning, and it's got me a bit worried. I'm not sure if it's my lung or something else, but it's bad enough that I can't really move until later in the day when it seems to get a bit better. Could this be something serious or just how I'm sleeping? Any advice on what I can do to stop it from happening?
It sounds like the pain might be related to muscle strain or poor posture during sleep, especially if it improves as the day goes on. However, if it persists or worsens, its important to get checked by a doctor to rule out any underlying issues, such as lung or heart problems. In the meantime, try adjusting your sleep posture and incorporating stretches to relieve tension.

I was diagnosed with TB after they found a left pleural effusion and completed a 6-month treatment, using Acurit4 for 2 months and Acurit3 for the other 4 months. Now everything's good and I don't have any symptoms. I'm wondering, is it safe for me to get the COVID vaccine now? Is there a specific one I should be going for, like Covishield or Covaxin?
