Question

Sometimes in the last two days, I've been experiencing shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my chest. I dont have any other symptoms. I was diagnosed with a bronchitis tendency a few years ago. After having COVID back in April 2021, I got a pulmonary analysis, and that was normal. With COVID still a concern, it's tough to meet a doctor face-to-face. Do you think it's safe for me to take Aerocort and Asthaline 4mg twice a day for 5 days? Any other advice you can share?

Question

I've been dealing with a pretty rough cough for about a week now, and it's been really productive. On top of that, I've had this severe cold for about five days. I took Azithromycin and Monteleukast, but I'm not sure if they're helping. Should I be worried, or do I just need to give it more time? What should I do next?

Question

Can I still use my asthma inhaler with formoterol and budesonide 320mg9ug after getting my vaccine? It's been three days since the shot and I'm just wondering if it's safe.

Question

My wife is 26 and got COVID-19 back in September, which later led to pneumonia. The pneumonia just wouldn't go away, and after some tests, we found out it's actually Pulmonary TB. She's been on a 6-month medication course for the past 3 months. But she's so weak all the time and vomits a lot, like, almost every time she eats, she throws up in about 30 minutes. How long do you think this will last? It's honestly really worrying.
