Hi Lookatyou,

It is always important to discuss any difficulty you have breathing with your TB doctor or nurse. It may be that you have more difficulty breathing when under exertion, which is why you breathe well at night. It could also be that you are more anxious in the day which can also cause a sense of breathlessness. Whatever the answer, get it checked as your TB doctor or nurse will be able to help.

Best wishes,

Helen

Hi Lookatyou,

If you are unhappy with your current doctor or nurse you can request a second opinion either through them or through your GP.

Best wishes,

Helen
