I've had this really stubborn cough for about 8 months now and it's sometimes so bad that I end up vomiting. I went to see a doctor and got tested for TB, but that came back negative. My X-ray did show some lower lobe subsegmental pulmonary consolidation. I was on medication for a while, and the cough got better, but as soon as I stopped, it came back. I saw another doctor who suggested it might be a gastric issue and told me to avoid spicy foods and fizzy drinks. But the cough is still here, and it's worse at night, sometimes leading to vomiting. I have to admit, Im still eating spicy foods occasionally, and I'm wondering if that's making it worse. What should I do next?

I've been having some issues with my stomach after eating mangoes, and it's been giving me loose motions. I took a roko tablet, but my stomach still hurts. What should I do?

It seems like you might be experiencing digestive discomfort or a mild intolerance to mangoes, which could be causing loose motions. I recommend staying hydrated and avoiding mangoes for now. If the pain persists or worsens, it may be a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider for a more thorough evaluation.

I've been throwing up this bitter yellow stuff since last night and my legs have gone kind of numb. Even though I'm not actually vomiting anymore, I still feel super nauseous and it's really intense. I've never had anything like this happen before. Any idea what might be going on?
