I'm really concerned about my dad. He's dealing with ILD and I've noticed lately that he keeps mentioning a constant feeling of nausea. He doesn't want to eat and feels like throwing up just by looking at food. Could this be because of the fibrodone tablets he's taking, like six a day? Would love some insights on this.

Question

I'm really worried because I tested positive for COVID-19 on May 4th, but luckily I had no symptoms and stayed in home isolation without needing steroids or oxygen. I've been experiencing some mild fatigue and sometimes a bit of a cough, but nothing serious, and I had congestion for just a couple of days. I've been taking Montekulsta for 10 days now. My breathing seems fine, but whenever I do steam inhalation, I notice white phlegm with black streaks in it. There's no phlegm if I skip the steam. Ive been like this for two days and my sugar levels after meals are around 158. Should I be concerned about black fungus infection and go for any specific tests to rule it out?

Question

I'm dealing with a cough and cold that started a couple days ago, and now I'm having some trouble breathing too. It's like the cough's getting worse. Can you suggest what medication might help with this?

Question

I'm a 30-year-old male and had a pleural effusion diagnosed as TB about eight months ago. I'm doing well now and was thinking of joining a gym. Could you suggest any body supplements that would be safe for me to use with my history?
