Tuberculosis: You need to see a physician soon or go to public health clinic where a sputum culture (including acid fast bacilli) and a chest radiograph. Other fungal diseases and bacterial diseases can also cause chronic bronchitis. Blood titers can be done for several of the fungal and bacterial disorders, but you physician will probably want to test you using a PPD (mantoux) test for TB and then prescribe.
