3. chest X-Ray
4. Test of sputum for any infection.

Emmm apa ya differential diagnosis untuk case di atas, bronchial asthma kah? Bronchitis kah? COPD kah? Atau fibrosis. Wah teruk-teruknyer diagnosis anda. Apapun doa-doakanlah penulis blog ini sihat-sihat je ya. Belum tahu ingin pergi jumpa doktor atau tidak dan sebenarnya saya sendiri secara jujur makin malas hendak bertemu doktor-doktor di sini. Entah kenapa, Apapun doktor Khalid dalam round sebelum ini pernah berkata, “The doctor is the worst patient, they dont follow the instruction and change everything” mungkin Ok lah, mahu beradu dahulu. Hingga jumpa lagi. Jazakumullah Khairan Kathira...
