Need more info: First if you smoke you must quit. You should go back to your physician within a week and get a breathing test that is easily done in the office. If simple exercise causes shortness of breath or you have a residual cough return to your physician within a week. Did you ever have a TB skin test? I think it is a good idea to get one.
