The first thing and very important is this.
Don't use your doctor's referral letter. Go to a polyclinic and get them to admit you to a hospital. It is way way cheaper.

SGH hv very good doctors. Best to avoid TTSH or NUH if possible. But, not to worry, you wil be alright. I believe just minor infection or sometimes, it cud hv water in yr lungs that needs to clear it up.

It sounds more like TB if Goldmine has chest pain with a persistent cough, chills, pain when breathing, fatigue and loss of appetite.

It's definitely not TB. I don't smoke. No persistent cough, fatigue. It is only when breathing in, cought and sneezing that the pain is felt. After taking 1 tablet of non drowsy decogen, I felt much relief that it had suppressed the urge to cough and sneezing Even breathing is easier. I will take one more tablet at bedtime. Hopefully, I have a peaceful sleep till I head to the polyclinic in the morning.

Take lemongrass often as a preventative measure. It's good for the heart, lunge, kidney, liver, unitary track infection and etc.
