AN OBSESSION

First of all i was totally a well build guy age of 23 years old .. and i suddenly catch a cold in Jan 2007.. and keep on coughing!!! after having diagnosis from my Respiratory Senio Doctor.. i did carry -out a tb test on my skin.. But either the test was negative ..i was measure a diameter of 12 cms/...So my doctor done an immediate x-ray to see the development of my tb??

They found a little bit ''around 2 cm of water on my lung border!!!'' So i did follow a therapy of 6 mths.. where i start to loose my handsome style.. don't wanna to go out,don't talk to any friends and always wear pullovers.. just to hide and stress myself..

My last visit at my doctor place was in November 2007 and he said that the tb already distroy.. but there were always some thin layers of water inside which will go by the running of time.

I come to the fact now !!!:
1.When i see somebody coughing i was totally devasted and avoid all connection with him as instance:avvoid closing next to him/her??? afraid that i can return back with this illness again!!!

2.I have an obsession of every time checking my weight!!??

3.I was not the same like before all this!! change a bit.. like preventing myself to drink in other mugs and so on!!1

4.Every time i see an x-ray in a movie.. i just get out of the room & hide myself..


QUESTIONS:
1.Can i re-tract again  this infection ?? by breathing the cough of someone who have tb.
2.How can i get out of all this??
3.What's the better excercise to today to reduce and finish with the little bit of water in the border fo my lung.
4.Is it common to have acnes come after my therapy ....
5.Does i have any reason to panic when i see someone coughing or in the same place of someone who have bad smell from the mouth???


Pls don't think that am turning to mad.... But it's just the bad experience that i just get in my life... you must experience it to discover the real thoughts that can bring-out all this..

Cheers,

l. Unless you live in an area where the incidence of tuberculosis (TB) is high, it is unlikely that you will contract TB again.
2. The best way to "get out ..." is to see a doctor who can tell you, with certainty, that you either have had or have not had TB.
3. Exercise will not reduce and remove the "water" in your lung.  Complete recovery will do that or you may be left with a scar, made of tissue and fluid.  No problem as long as there is no reason to suspect that the fluid is a sign of continuing infection.
4. Depends on the therapy but unlikely with usual TB therapy.
5. No.  There is no reason to panic.  Just, slowly, remove yourself from that person's immediate presence.

What ever you do, you need to be seen by a doctor who can tell you exactly what has been going on and what, if anything more should be done about it.

The fluid, if a small amount should be removed, only for diagnostic purposes.  It should not be removed just because it is there.
