See as per clinical history it seems either post operative complete of tuberculosis or any respiratory infection.

I suggest you to please get following tests to rule out the reoccurrence or any other systemic disease Sputum culture CBC TLC Dlc Hemogram Esr Afb staining Chest ultrasound In addition please follow below diet to improve immunity and get relief Zincovit multivitamin once s day for 3 months Liv 52 for liver recovery Hight protein ( cheese or panner) diet atleast once a day for 2 months Folate capsule once a day for 1 month Kindly follow this diet and share the results with general physician or pulmonary surgeon for better clarification. Hope you recover soon Regards

Based on your history of a blood infection and tuberculosis (TB), persisting symptoms like fatigue, dizziness, burning sensations, and hollow-sounding cough could indicate a few possibilities that are worthwhile to investigate. Chronic post-infection syndromes can sometimes cause lingering issues, particularly if the body is still recovering from major illnesses. It’s possible these symptoms are residual effects of the infections, especially if there was significant inflammation or immune system activation during those illnesses. Another consideration might be peripheral neuropathy, which could cause burning sensations, and is sometimes associated with medication side effects or nutritional deficiencies, especially vitamin B6 or B12. Meanwhile, the hollow chest sound upon coughing could indicate some kind of lung issue, possibly remaining inflammation or scarring from TB. Given these complex symptoms, it’s a good idea to have detailed labs performed, including a full blood panel and vitamin levels check. Lung imaging, like a chest X-ray or CT scan, might offer more insight into the cough and any lingering lung abnormalities. If new infections are ruled out, addressing each symptom may require a multi-faceted approach involving monitoring nutrition, managing stress levels, or possibly physical therapy for any neuropathic symptoms. If symptoms persist or get worse, seeing a specialist might be essential, potentially a pulmonologist or infectious disease expert, who can provide deeper insight into long-term effects of TB and previous infections. Always prioritize this kind of assessment sooner than later, particularly if there’s significant impact on your daily life, to guide effective treatment.
