Question

I'm really worried about my recovery from covid. I had mild symptoms and didn't have any breathing issues, but now, even after 30 days since the symptoms began, I'm experiencing some pain in my back and chest. My D-dimer level is 1.12, and I'm anxious about when this will come down and when I'll feel completely normal again. I'm concerned about potential post-covid complications. Is this something I should be worried about, or is this a normal part of the recovery process?

I'm really worried about my dad. I've attached his recent chest CT scan, and I'm hoping you can help explain what's going on. He was diagnosed with COPD last year, and I'm not sure how this scan relates to that. What should I be looking out for?

Question

I'm having trouble sleeping because every time I'm about to fall into a deep sleep, I feel short of breath, almost like I'm having an attack, and it wakes me up suddenly. It's really interrupting my sleep and I'm starting to get worried. I'm not getting enough rest at night, and it's only made worse by a bit of nasal congestion. What could be going on?

Question

I'm really worried about my dad. He was diagnosed with acute bronchitis back in January 2020, and he's also got diabetes. He's been using this Foracort 400 inhaler, started with 2 puffs twice a day, and now it's down to once in the morning and evening. The thing is, he's been using it consistently ever since. I'm just wondering, should he keep using it indefinitely? And are there any side effects we should be aware of?
