Question

I'm really struggling with my breathing and it's been happening for about three days now. I saw a chest physician who said it might be hyperventilation. I'm really anxious and need some advice on finding a lasting solution. Can you help?

Question

I'm experiencing some pain near my ribs when I breathe in and I also feel short of breath after climbing stairs. I went to a cardiologist and all the tests came back normal, so they recommended I see an orthopaedist. Should I go to a pulmonologist instead to get this checked out?

Question

I've been dealing with some leftover symptoms after getting over COVID. I was diagnosed back in April and finally tested negative in late May, but here I am, a month later, still experiencing a mild cough with phlegm in the mornings and sometimes a bit of chest strain when I sit and lean back. It's been a bit worrying, and I've had two different doctors recommend different thingsone suggested Pulmoclear and the other Montek LC. I'm just trying to figure out what would actually help in clearing up these post-COVID issues. Any guidance would be appreciated.
