I've been having this dry cough issue but it's weird because it only kicks in at night when I'm sleeping deeply. Do you have any syrup suggestions that could help with this? Also, I've noticed a strange sound when I breathe at night. Any idea what's going on?

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'm really worried because my recent CT scan and X-ray showed I have bronchiectasis in my right upper lung. There's also something about my lower bowel that's concerning. Could this be why I've been having breathing issues or stomach discomfort? What could these findings mean for my health and are there any specific treatments you would recommend?

I've been dealing with chronic asthma for about 20 years now, and for the past decade, formonide 200 Novocart has been my go-to medication. Lately, I've been having trouble finding it in stores. Could you recommend an equivalent medicine I could switch to? I'm really concerned about managing my symptoms effectively.
