Question

I've just had a PFT test done, and my FEV1FVC readings came out to be 110, both for pre and post-tests. I'm a bit concerned because I can't consult my pulmonologist since they're on vacation. Do you think this is something I should be worried about?

Question

I'm trying to wrap my head around this whole smoker's cough thing. I quit smoking about a month ago, but now I'm dealing with this annoying cough, some wheezing, and it's slightly hard to breathe sometimes. Any idea how long these symptoms will stick around? Are there any home remedies I can try, or do I need to go for medication? I was at 12 cigarettes a day for 12 years, so I'm kind of worried. What do you think?

Question

I'm a bit worried about the Budamate 200 mcg inhaler I've been using for the past five days as prescribed by my pulmonologist. Could it potentially lead to secondary infections, like black fungus? Just trying to understand the risks better.
