Question

I sometimes feel a heaviness in my breathing, especially in the evenings. But when I try running or jogging for around 10 minutes, I don't get breathless or experience a shortness of breath. Is it possible that I have asthma? Im wondering if people with asthma can still run like that. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

Question

I'm really worried about my grandfather. He just had a CT scan, and the doctors in our town said he has ILD. Given everything going on with the pandemic, we're struggling to get him to see a pulmonologist in a bigger city. He smoked once, worked at a cotton mill for two decades, and has been in agriculture and poultry farming. With all this, plus his age, I'm just wondering how much longer we can wait before seeing a specialist. Are there any temporary measures or remedies we can take at home to keep his ILD from getting worse until we can get that appointment? Would love any advice you can share.
