Question

I'm having a really tough time whenever I'm around dust. It triggers breathing issues, a lot of wheezing, coughing, and sneezing. I'm just exhausted dealing with this. Could you give me some advice on what I could do to manage or alleviate these symptoms?

Question

I'm struggling a lot with my recent diagnosis of pulmonary fibrosis. I've got this stubborn cough that just won't go away, I can't seem to sleep well at night, and I keep running a low-grade fever. It's really frustrating because I can't taste food properlyeverything has this weird bitter taste. Since I know there's no cure for pulmonary fibrosis, I'm really hoping to find ways to manage these symptoms and get some relief. Could you please guide me on what steps I might take?

Question

I'm trying to understand the readings on my oximeter. Sometimes, within 5 seconds, it shows a reading of 97 or 98, but other times it takes 15 or 20 seconds to give a reading. Also, it occasionally shows a very low value like 90 at first and then jumps to 96 or 97 after a few seconds. On the flip side, it might start at 98 and then go down. I'm seeing a range from 90 to 98. Is this kind of fluctuation normal? Which reading should I actually consider? Would appreciate any insight into this!

Question

I'm wondering if the muscles in my upper back are affecting my breathing. When I lean against the wall near my bed, I feel like I'm gasping for air, and my upper back muscles get really tight. I'm not sure what's going on. Can you shed some light on this? What should I do about it?
