I'm a bit confused about the Metaspray 10 ML Nasal the doctor recommended for me. How long am I supposed to use it? Also, I got a Levolin Inhaler prescribed, but I'm not sure when and for how long to start using it. Can you help clarify this for me?

I'm worried because my mom's oxygen levels drop when she sleeps. The doctors mentioned that her lungs aren't expelling enough oxygen when she breathes out. She's 67 years old, weighs 95 kg, and is about 5 feet tall. Do you have any advice on what we can do to help her?

Your mother's condition, known as sleep-related hypoxemia, may be related to obesity-hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) or sleep apnea, given her weight and age; consider consulting a pulmonologist or sleep specialist for a thorough evaluation, including a sleep study, and potential treatments like continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, oxygen supplementation, or weight loss strategies to improve her oxygen levels and overall health.

I'm really worried about my mom... She was diagnosed with COVID, and we're now on the 14th day. Luckily, she hasn't had a fever for the last 6 days. Her CT scan on the 5th day showed a 625 score, and she started taking 40 mg of Predmet, which seemed to help with the fever. But now, I'm concerned about her D-dimer levels; they were at 1300 and after 4 injections of 40 mg Enoxaparin, it's down to 1100. I'm just really anxious to know how long it'll take for her D-dimer levels to drop below 500. Is there a typical timeframe for this to happen?

Atleast 3-5 days is advised to the patient.
