Question

I've been using Foracort 200 synchrobreathe, taking 2 puffs a day for the past couple of months. Lately, I've started experiencing nasal congestion and have noticed I'm not as hungry as before. I'm wondering if this could be a side effect of Foracort 200. Can you shed some light on this?

Question

I've been going through my chest X-ray report from a few days ago, and it mentions something about "Rt. Infra Hilar Congestion." Should I be worried about this? And what kind of treatment would be recommended? Right now, I'm only experiencing some pain in my right ear and jaw, but no other symptoms.

Question

I've been dealing with asthma for about 10 years now and I'm currently taking ICSLABA. Lately, I've noticed that my oxygen saturation levels are consistently low, around 92-94. Should I be concerned about this?

Question

I'm really worried about my dad. His oxygen saturation has been stuck at 88 for the last five days, even though he's on 5L oxygen at the hospital. The CT scan showed these ground glass opacities in his lungs, and he's taking pirfenidone, along with formonide and combimiat. What should we expect next? Is there anything else we can do to help improve his condition?
