Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to Chat Doctor. Read and reviewed query. Based on facts of your query, You seem to suffer from-Pulmonary TB with debility with advanced age and chronic disease. In your case where there is a lot of productive phlegm, I would suggest you to wait for another 2-4 weeks till the Chat Doctor. Check for HIV status also, as it could be missed and could cause late response in few cases. Good High Protein /Bland Diet, Plenty of fluids Supportive symptomatic medicines-like Antibiotics to reduce secondary accompanied lung infections with Pain/ fever
