I'm curious about something. I've been randomly checking my SpO2 levels in the morning and at night. In the morning, they're usually between 97 to 99, but at night they go from 94 to 98. I'm not running a fever or anything. Do you think this is something I should be concerned about?

I'm having this on-and-off cough for a few weeks, and I'm really worried. I had an x-ray, and they saw some infection-like patches on my right lung, but my COVID test was negative. I took some meds like amoxicillin, montelukast, and clarithromycin for five days, then Allegram and Abphyllin SR for another week. The second x-ray looked okay, but I still have cough. Some days it's not so bad, but other days, I've got this chest congestion with white phlegm that's sometimes frothy, sometimes thick. My doctor wants me to keep taking Allegram and Abphyllin for three more weeks. I'm anxious about whether this is enough or if I should do more. Is using a nebulizer something I should consider?

continue as per doctor's advice

I was just walking normally when all of a sudden, I felt choked and couldn't breathe for a minute. It was really scary. What could have caused that, and should I be worried or see someone about it?

did something struck in throat, if in that case refer to causality immediately

Im worried about my mom who was recently diagnosed with IPF or hypersensitivity pneumonitis. Sometimes she experiences a blocked nose and chest tightness, and it makes it hard for her to breathe, although shes stable with her oxygen levels around 98-99%. The doctor suggested Foracort 200 rotacaps for her wheezing, but she doesn't wheeze all the time. She tried taking it once in the morning and once in the evening, but were not sure how often she should be using the Foracort. Is there a recommended routine for this, and can we use a nebulizer to help with her nasal blockage? Would an inhaler be a better option for these symptoms? Any advice would be appreciated.

To use rotcaps you might be give rotahaler,that comes with a user manual follow the guidelines and use it accordingly.
