I've been having these really scary moments just before I fall asleep where I stop breathing and wake up in like a full-on adrenaline rush. It's happening a lot, like 15 to 20 times back-to-back. I thought it was obstructive sleep apnea, so I tried using a CPAP, but that didn't solve it. Then I considered it might be a stomach acid thing and tried Nexium, but nope, still happening. Do you have any ideas about what could be causing this?

View allI'm really worried about my mom. After she had severe Covid with pneumonia, her HRCT showed ground glass opacity. We did another HRCT later and it mentioned scattered ground glass opacity and something called Koch's lesion. Now, a year later, her CT scan shows a few lung nodules, with the largest being 9mm, and the doctor is suggesting a bronchoscopy. I'm confused and scared about why this is happening. Also, she has severe OSA and uses a machine at night. Could you help me understand what's going on and why the bronchoscopy is needed?
there is still infection persisting in lung. since there's a nodule ,need to rule out other causes soo better proceed for bronchoscopy

I'm dealing with this dry cough that just won't go away. It's been ages, and nothing seems to come up when I cough. I've already gone to the hospital and got tested. The docs gave me some tablets and did an X-ray too. But even after all of this, the cough hasnt stopped. One of the doctors mentioned it's not TB and said my chest looks clear. So what else could be causing this? I'm 26, don't smoke, and only drink alcohol on rare occasions and in small amounts. Just trying to figure out what's going on here.
That could be either allergic bronchitis or pharyngitis, visit Physician for appropriate management and consume warm liquids and fruits for better healing.

I'm currently dealing with active tuberculosis and I'm on a treatment plan taking Combutol 800 in the morning and an Ambystryn injection in the evening. I'm a bit worried and wondering if this is the correct treatment for my condition. Could you share your thoughts or advice on this?
-It sounds like you're on the right treatment for active TB, as Combipack (Combutol) and Ambystryn (Amikacin) are commonly used. However, it's crucial to follow your doctor's advice and attend regular follow-ups to ensure the treatment is effective. Stay
