Question

I've been having this breathlessness issue for a while now. It's strange because I don't have asthma and my blood pressure is normal. The doctor did some kind of small lung test using this tiny machine on my finger, and that came out normal too. But I keep getting this really frequent cough and have problems with acidity. Could they be related? I'm wondering if this is something serious. What's your take on it?

While your symptoms might not necessarily indicate something major, it's important to address them proactively. GERD, post-nasal drip, or even stress could be contributing to your symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor for further evaluation to rule out other conditions

Question

I'm dealing with bronchitis asthma and I'm on Seroflo 250 and Montek FX. I also have NASH and take Bilypsa, Adesam 400, and Evion 400 for it. But every time I take Evion, I start having trouble breathing and it seems like it makes my asthma worse. Is there any link between Evion 400 and asthma? Why could this be happening?

Question

My mom just had treatment for pleural effusion in her left lung and now she's experiencing pain in her stomach. Is this something normal after such a procedure, or should we be worried? Can you explain what's going on?

Question

My father's chest X-ray report is showing some concerning stuff and I'm quite worried. There's mention of something like a fibrotic patch with volume loss and consolidative opacities in the right upper zone, and it also says the right hilum is pulled up. The right dome of the diaphragm seems elevated with some opacity in the right CP angle. But it also mentions that the hili, CP angles, and the heart are normal, as well as the rib cage. There's a part about "FSO Koch's etiology" that makes me think it needs more investigation. Could you help me understand what all this means and what steps should be taken next?
