Thank you very much! I must inform the family that they should see a doctor as soon as possible.

My question really is, and out of curiosity only, is this color view thing. The guy showed me the results of his X-ray and asked me about it. I never thought it would be that serious.

Thanks again.

I must say again, "thank you". And I'll charge the guy who asked me about this for my "professional fee". A cup of coffee will do.

I was just kidding hahah

But seriously, a doctor's time is so expensive. Sometimes I see my cardio for less than 10 mins and that's P1.2k na hahaha. And then gift pa for the doctor and secretary

Naku ito nga kinatatakot ko ngayon at madalas ako public transpo para makatipid. Kaso tuwing may kumakahol sa MRT o LRT eh nanginginig talaga tuhod ko sa kaba dahil nga sobrang siksikan pa. Nung isang araw nabahingan pa ako salong salo ko sneeze nung isang tao. Tapos sa mga opisina naman ngayon pag release ng annual physical exam eh puro may suspected TB ang mga tao. Napansin ko nga lately dumarami nagsusuot ng flu mask at nagbebenta nito sa tabi tabi, nakakatulong ba talaga ito para ma avoid TB kung sumasakay public transpo? btw, diba meron nga pala vakuna sa TB?

Nung una punta ko seoul at tokyo nagtataka ako bat ang dami nakasuot flu mask, sabi ko may bagong epidemic nanaman ba na kumakalat. Tapos yun pala dahil lang daw sa lamig kaya dami nagsusuot ng ganun dun hehe pati sa mga convenience store dami binebenta na ganun sa kanila..

thank you for this valuable information.

JJB said that 95% of the population is or has been exposed to this malady, this is too high.

is there some way that the government could do to lessen or minimize the incidence of exposure?

Mostly naman sa Japan by the start and during spring.. marami kasi prone to allergies caused by Pollens.. kahit sa weather apps nga may notification about pollens in different areas.

I see, based ka pala sa Japan. Saang city ka?

Ang grabe umatake sakin nung sa nagoya. Spring kasi kami nakapunta. Halos di talaga ko makahinga noon kaya habang enjoy sa travel eh nagsuffer naman sa allergic rhinitis yung tipong need ko na ng oxygen tank dahil sa bibig na ako humihinga. Kaya after nun lagi na ko nagbaon claritin pag mag travel para sigurado, baka sakali umatake nanaman.

Try mo boss minimal gluten at dairy intake. Meron mga western medicine doctor dito so baka magalit hehehe pero no harm in trying naman kasi sa experience ko effective ganito. Ganda ng epekto nito sakin bihira na lang ako magka allergic rhinits nung binawasan ko paglamon ng dairy at gluten. Pero pag nag pizza ako yan ang pinakamasamang pagkain para sakin umaatake talaga rhinitis. Sana effective din sa pollen allergic rhinitis ang ganito.
