I've been having trouble breathing for more than two months now, especially when I laugh or talk, and it feels like I'm out of breath easily. I went through an X-ray and a cardiac check, and both seem to be normal, but I'm still not sure what's causing it. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a form of anxiety or stress-related breathing difficulty, especially since both your X-ray and cardiac check are normal. It could also be related to muscle tension in the chest or diaphragm. I recommend consulting a respiratory specialist or considering breathing exercises to help manage this.

I'm a bit worried thoughcan breathing in too much oxygen from the cylinder be harmful? They're also experiencing breathlessness, which is why we've set up the oxygen at home.

I'm really concerned about what's been happening with my health. I had TB back in May 2020 and finished the treatment in November that year and I felt fine after but then in April 2021, I got COVID. Since then I've been struggling with low-grade fever, cold feet, severe headaches, neck pain, and this overwhelming weakness like my body will just give up if I do anything for more than 15 minutes. All my blood tests have come back normal, and Crocin and paracetamol didn't help with the fever. Naproxyn worked for a bit, but the fever came back. It's been over a year and things just aren't getting betterin fact, they're getting worse. In March 2022, my doctor started looking into other causes, but all the tests were normal except for this chronic empyema in the lungs. They started ATT in April, and things got better at first but then went downhill again. After a PET scan, they found the empyema was active, so I had surgery and started on second-line drugs based on the biopsy report. There's been a little improvement, but then it just got worse again. I'm really at a loss here and would appreciate any advice or insights. What could be causing this?

I've been dealing with this annoying dry cough ever since I recovered from a fever and cold last week. It feels like it's coming from deep in the lungs and has a lot of force behind it. I've been taking chericof for three days now, but it hasn't helped at all. I visited a doctor, got an injection, and he prescribed some meds, saying I'd feel better by the next day, but there's been zero relief. It's just this relentless dry coughno fever, body pain, fatigue, appetite issues, or high blood pressure. Do you have any idea what's going on and what I should consider doing next?
