I've been feeling breathless for the past couple of weeks, but my X-ray and pulmonary function test came back normal. The doctor mentioned something about Telecast L. Can you help me understand what this is and how it might help with my breathlessness? I'm starting to worry since everything looks normal on the tests.

I'm really worried about my dad's asthma. He's been using Serollo 250 for the past 5 years because his asthma specialist recommended it. However, lately, every time we get a new one, it seems defective and isn't helping much. His asthma symptoms are actually getting worse, and Im really concerned. Is there an alternative to Serollo 250 that we might be able to find at local stores? I've attached a pic of the product if that helps.

My mom's dealing with some serious breathing issues. She was hospitalized with a chest infection and her lungs are all bloated. They found pseudomonas in her blood culture and she was on Pepar IV three times a day for 10 days, plus steroids, Budamate, and Duolin nebulizers. Even after all that, she's still having trouble breathing and the infections getting worse. After she was discharged, they put her on Linezolid 600 for five days, but it didn't help. Now they've suggested we keep an oxygen cylinder at home because of her breathing problems. Is there anything we can do to keep her oxygen level above 90 without the cylinder at home? Shes also dealing with CKD, thyroid issues, diabetes, and vasculitis. She's currently on a bunch of meds like Pulmoclear, Montair Fx, MMF, Wyslone, Amlip, Aztor, Human Actrapid, Lantus, Erythropoietin, Budamate inhaler, and Dytor. Any guidance would be really appreciated.

I was diagnosed with lymph node TB back in August 2021, and Ive been on medication since then. I haven't had any symptoms for the past six months, which is great, but I'm wondering about smoking. I know its generally bad for your health, no matter your condition, but Im curious if it could specifically affect the treatment outcomes for TB. Does smoking have any particular impact on how well I might recover or respond to the treatment?

yes it can
