Chest & Breathing Problems
Booster Shot (Covishield)
I had taken both the shots of Covishield, however still contracted Coronavirus two times. In March contracted tuberculosis and have been under ATT since then.
I am taking Akurit 3 along with some multivitamins and Omega 3 capsules. I was also given steroids for a week due to the right pleural effusion which has now been resolved successfully. I am in two minds about the Covid booster Shot. Should I take it or wait till the treatment culminates? Are there any side effects of the booster Shot specifically to tb patients? I am taking very strong medicines under ATT so is it safe to take the vaccine?

Needle Biopsy Risk
I have a soft tissue attenuating lesion 3 cm..
The pet scan for it came Metabolic Active..
So they referred us to oncologist but he denies treatment until we get a biopsy of that particular mass..
They are asking for a biopsy but location of lesion is hard to get so CT scan guided needle biopsy has been said to be done.. but then again the doctor is saying it is very risky and pneumothorax could happen.. and left the decision on us..
Is there any other way out?
I don't understand even for a sample I have to take so much risk? Please help 🙏

Mother's cough
My mother has a cough from 4th July after she had some thing cold. She has no blocked nose fever or head ache ( had top of the head pain first 2-3 days when coughing) . We visited a nearby GP on 10th and she said both throat and chest look clear (not done xray) and this looks like an upper respiratory tract infection. The cough has come down and she is able to sleep at night but in the day she still coughs once ever hour and the cough sounds congestion filled thick. How long will this take to heal and should she go back to the doctor to get antibiotics ? Is a CT scan needed or will Xray do.
