Question

I'm dealing with a viral flu and it's been about two days now. I visited my doctor today, and he mentioned I've got a bit of wheezing on top of everything. He suggested I take Pulmoclear tablets twice daily, once in the morning and once at night, for a week, alongside the antibiotics I'm already on. I've never taken Pulmoclear before and it's my first time experiencing wheezing. Is this medication safe for me? I'm pretty anxious about trying something new and don't know how my body will react or if it's going to work well for me. Could you give me some advice?

Question

I'm worried about a scar or spot on my lungs mentioned during a medical fitness exam. Can you explain what this means? Is it something I should be concerned about?

Question

I'm feeling really concerned because I had COVID over 8 months ago, and it was pretty severe with CORAD 5 and pneumonia. Since then, I just haven't felt like myself. I have this ongoing pain in my chest, mostly on the left side, and now my eyesight seems to be getting blurry too. I did an ECG and echo back in October, and they looked fine, and I had a chest X-ray in December and another ECG in January, which were also normal. I'm really at a loss about what to do next. Which type of doctor should I see, and is there a chance I'll ever feel like I did before COVID without all these issues?

Question

I'm really struggling with this issue and it's been over a year now. I've seen several doctors - 3 ENT specialists and 2 DTCD doctors. My main issue is this constant feeling of congestion and mucus in my throat. It doesn't bother me at night or when I'm sleeping, but during the day, it feels like I always need to clear my throat. A chest specialist recently prescribed me the Aerocart inhaler, which I used three times a day for 10 days, then twice daily, and finally once a day, but after 30 days, there was no improvement. They then suggested I try Theo Asthalin tablets twice a day, but it's been 2 days and still no change. What should I do next? This is really starting to worry me.
