Is there any chance I can get around the visa denial issue due to the old TB marks on my X-ray? It's frustrating because I had TB six years ago, I've been completely fit since then. I really don't know how to get a clear X-ray now. Is there anything I can do about this?

I've been dealing with some gastric reflux issues and I've noticed this weird pattern where after a few minutes of breathing normally, I find myself needing to take a deep breath or I start yawning, but then I can't really complete the yawn. It's like it's stuck or something. Sometimes my nostrils also feel like they get blocked and I'm wondering if all these could be connected somehow? I've been using inhalers for my breathing problems, but I'm starting to feel like they might not be enough on their own. Could my weight be playing a role in this too? I'm just a bit confused and would love some advice.
yes there is a connection

I'm dealing with a dull pain in my chest that's been going on for about a week now. Just today, I started sneezing and have some thick, colorless mucus. I am a regular smoker, so I'm really wondering what's happening with my body right now. What should be my next move?
stop smoking. start steam inhalation
