I've been noticing that I'm sighing a lot, like every 5 to 10 minutes I'm taking a deep breath. Occasionally I can't seem to get a full deep breath. This started about 4 days ago and it's got me a bit worried. I don't have any chest pain, and my normal breathing is fine. Do you think this could be an allergy thing, something with my lungs, or maybe even my heart? I'm also yawning frequently. For context, I weigh 80 kg and I'm 169 cm tall. I have hypothyroidism and I'm on 25 mcg of thyronorm. Could any of this be linked?
it might be because of anxiety, kindly reduce your weight and your anxiety

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been switched from Glycomet 1 Forte to Galvus Met 50500 because he was having some gastric issues. Is Galvus Met effective in controlling diabetes? Are there any side effects we should be aware of? I'm just trying to make sure we're making the right decision for his health. Can you help shed some light on this?
Galvus Met 50500, containing vildagliptin and metformin, is a commonly prescribed oral anti-diabetic medication that can effectively control blood sugar levels; however, potential side effects include headache, dizziness, and gastrointestinal issues, such as diarrhea or nausea, although these are generally mild and temporary; since your father experienced gastric issues with Glycomet, monitor his response to Galvus Met and report any concerns
