Question

I'm dealing with Chronic Bronchitis and it's been quite a hassle. I'm looking for some permanent solutions beyond just managing the symptoms. Are there any effective home remedies that could help with Bronchitis in the long run?

Question

I'm having trouble sleeping because every time I'm about to fall into a deep sleep, I feel short of breath, almost like I'm having an attack, and it wakes me up suddenly. It's really interrupting my sleep and I'm starting to get worried. I'm not getting enough rest at night, and it's only made worse by a bit of nasal congestion. What could be going on?

Question

I'm in my fourth month of TB treatment and initially had some liver issues, but things are going smoothly now. I'm really curious, does this mean I'm at a higher risk for COVID-19 compared to a normal person?

Question

Hey, my father-in-law, who's 63, was admitted on an oxygen bed on May 1st with a saturation level of 88. He tested positive for Covid19 and he's been getting treated in the hospital. Yesterday, his oxygen was at 15 liters, and his saturation was about 95, but today it's dropped back to 88 without oxygen support. The hospital suggested he might be discharged in 2 days since he's been physically good and active. So I'm really wondering, should we be worried about this drop in saturation? Is it something unusual or potentially dangerous? And is it safe for him to be discharged after just 2 days? I'm trying to understand if an oxygen level of 88 is bad or if it's something normal with recovering patients?
