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 really concerned because my mom has been taking Serobid Rotacaps for about four years now without any issues, but I've heard there's a shortage of the 50 mcg ones across the country. Could you recommend a non-steroid alternative for this? I just want to make sure she continues her treatment without any interruptions.

Question

I'm really worried about my dad; hes been in the ICU for 12 days now with this new type of pneumonia the doctors mentioned. There's still no improvement in his condition, and hes on a ventilator to support his breathing. It all started with a cough and a fever, so we thought it was swine flu and took him to the hospital, but the swine flu test was negative, and his heart seems fine. But hes still struggling to breathe normally. They said something about fluid in his oxygen pathways or possibly ARDS. Im really confused and unsure of what to do next, and I could send you his medical reports and prescriptions if that helps. Any advice would be really appreciated.
