Question

I recently quit smoking after more than 8 years, but now I'm having issues with some right lung pain and it feels uneasy to breathe sometimes. I've also been dealing with frequent colds. Are there any home remedies or tips that could help with these symptoms? I'm really looking for some advice on what to do.

Question

I'm dealing with asthma, high blood pressure, and urticaria, and I'm a bit concerned about what's going on right now. I'm 39 years old, not married, and honestly, I've been struggling with my weight at 113kg with a height of 169 cm. For 7 years, I've been on Stamlo 5 mg and Cetzine, but recently I ran into some trouble with severe ulcer issues and took Esogress D for that. Just a few days back, I saw a pulmonologist because I was having a rough time with my asthmalots of chest congestion and coughing. They prescribed Formoflo 250 mg inhaler, Telekast LAB Flo SR 200mg, Ivepred 8mg, and Pantaacid DSR 40 mg. I even had to get nebulized for quick relief when I was in the hospital. But now, with these new asthma meds, I'm feeling weird. I'm sweating even with the AC on, my stomach feels uneasy and burns at times, and my hand is a bit shaky. Plus, there's this odd blood-gushing sensation in my left hand and leg, and I'm slightly giddy and finding it hard to concentrate. I did an ECG and echocardiogram two months back, and everything was okay, even did a TMT. Any idea what's going on with me?

Question

I'm having a really hard time catching my breath and there's this awful heaviness to my coughs. I'm also feeling super weak, and my sinuses are acting up too. I recently had an X-ray and they said it showed bronchitis. Should I be worried? What steps should I take next?

Question

I'm dealing with asthma, but for the past 45 months, I've been feeling breathless constantly. There's a lot of yawning and burping happening too. I had an X-ray, which showed everything's fine. I've tried nebulization and other treatments my doctor recommended, but nothing seems to work. Could you offer some advice on what might be happening?
