Question

I'm really worried because I noticed something odd with the SpO2 levels after running. Normally, it's between 93 and 99, but right after running, it dropped to 80 before quickly going back to 88, and then 90. This person isnt very active normally. Should I be concerned about this sudden change?

Question

My mom's CT value was 1325 even after getting 10 injections of Remdesivir and it's been 20 days now, but her CT value is still 1425. She's also having some trouble with her oxygen levels. I'm really worried about what this means for her condition and what steps we should take next. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Question

I'm really worried about something I just found out. Last year, I was in a car accident, and nobody told me anything about my chest x-ray results. I looked at the report today, and it mentions things like biapical pleural thickening, perihilar interstitial prominence, and mild hyperaeration. I have no idea what any of this means. I was fine until recently, but now I've started coughing up phlegm, and I get short of breath when I walk up stairs, although it goes away quickly. Other than that, I feel healthy. Can you help ease my mind and tell me what I should do next?

Question

I've been dealing with bronchitis for the past two months and have been on antibiotics. Is it okay if I try using Mucinac 600 mg tablets for my treatment?
