Hello Dr,
From past few days I'm hvg breathlessness. There is some heaviness in my chest. Its more during the mornings nd night. Sometimes I cant sleep at night nd then I inhale some camphor in a handkerchief nd feel better at times but not always. I even consulted a chest physician nd he prescribed some acidity syrup nd allegra 120. Felt better for few days but again the same issue. Whats the actual reason nd what shld I do to come out of this ?

QuantiFeron Gold - Positive however No weight loss noticed, no appetite changes, Doctor advised it could be TB and started with Tab Rifampicin 450mg, Tab INH 300mg, Tab Pyrazinamide 750mg, Tab Ethambutol 600mg, And Pyridoxine 40mg. Now my question is problem occurs two time one last year and now this time, in between and before last year no problem at all no cough entire year, so should I go with this treatment ..??

Asthma and wheezing
I'm experiencing asthma attacks since a few days... Earlier I used to get it once in a while and it would subside by using asthalin inhaler... But now I'm getting it very frequently like 2 to 3 times in a day and I feel breathlessness and wheezing sound also occurs. I'm exposed to dust during travelling.. Can that be the cause for this?
And also these symptoms increases after I wake up from sleep and a lot of sputum is produced and I also have irritation in my eyes and throat itching
