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'm curious and a bit worried about something that's been happening to me recently. I've been dealing with GERD for about four years and have been on medication for it. But over the last three months, I've been experiencing some breathing issues and chest tightness while walking and talking. It's frustrating because I feel the need to take deep, relaxing breaths, but I can't seem to get a full breath or feel any relief from trying. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

I'm 28 years old and have been having some trouble with shortness of breath. I feel like I have to consciously force myself to breathe. I tried using a nebulizer, but it didn't really help. Could you suggest what else I might try or what might be going on?
