Question 1

I'm really concerned because I've had this persistent cough for 25 days now, and it's accompanied by pain on the left side of my chest and a lot of fatigue, but I don't have any fever. I went to a doctor who recommended some tests and here are the results: my ESR is at 48 mm1hr, TEC is 4.17 Cumm, and while my CBC came back normal, my white blood cell count is at 13.9 Thmm3. My Serum Vitamin D3 is pretty low at 20.5 ngml, and I tested negative for Sputum for AFB. I'm not sure what all this means and should I be worried about these results?

Accepted Answer

tab pantop 40mg , syrup ascoril

Question 2

I've smoked 43 cigarettes over the last 8 months and I've stopped now, but I'm really worried. How much harm could that have done to my health? Am I safe, or should I be concerned about any potential diseases? I'd really appreciate some advice on this.

Accepted Answer

Smoking cessation is advised to the patient.

Question 3

My wife is in her last week of the second trimester and she's been really under the weather with a bad cold and fever over the past couple of days. Initially, she was taking Calpol 650mg twice a day, Augmentin 625 three times a day, Asthakind DX syrup three times a day, and Teczine once a day. Thankfully, the fever's gone now, but the cold has gotten worse, and our physician thinks it might be pneumonia, so he sent us to a pulmonologist. Today, the pulmonologist prescribed Mox 500mg twice a day, Allegra M once a day, Calpol 500mg twice a day, and AB Phylline capsules twice a day. I'm really concerned and wondering if it's safe for her to take AB Phylline and Allegra M during pregnancy. Could you shed some light on this for us?

Accepted Answer

ab phylline is not safe during pregnancy, but allegra is safe

I'm a 30-year-old guy and I've been smoking heavily, like 23 packs a day. I just got my CT scan results and the tech mentioned something about "no other pulmonary abnormalities aside from early small airway air trapping." What exactly does that mean for my lungs? Should I be worried?
