Question

I'm dealing with asthma and allergic rhinitis and recently did a reverse spirometry test. My FEV1FVC came out to be 81 and my FEV1 was 71. After using a bronchodilator inhaler, there was no change in these values. Should I be worried? Especially since my chest X-ray and blood tests turned out normal?

Question

I'm really worried about my wife's health. She's been having these episodes of a dry cough that last around 2 hours, and it's happening every day. The doctor did an HRCT, and it came back negative, but an X-ray showed she has bronchitis. She's been in the hospital for a week now with no improvement in her condition. What should we do next? Is there something else we might be missing?

Question

I'm experiencing some discomfort and pain on the left side of my rib and chest area, especially when I take a deep breath. It also gets worse if I sleep on my left side. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it?

Question

I've been having these really scary moments just before I fall asleep where I stop breathing and wake up in like a full-on adrenaline rush. It's happening a lot, like 15 to 20 times back-to-back. I thought it was obstructive sleep apnea, so I tried using a CPAP, but that didn't solve it. Then I considered it might be a stomach acid thing and tried Nexium, but nope, still happening. Do you have any ideas about what could be causing this?
