I'm currently taking Seroflo 250 and I'm considering switching to Foracort. I'm a bit unsure thoughshould I be looking at Foracort 200 or 400 to match the dosage I'm getting from Seroflo 250? Could you help me figure out the equivalent dose?

I've been dealing with asthma and recently had a chest infection for which I was prescribed prednisone and antibiotics. After finishing the course, I got a sinus infection and tried to manage it without antibiotics, but now I'm back on them. My oxygen levels are at 93, and I've been relying on Ventolin and Symbicort, even increasing the Symbicort when needed. The doctor mentioned there were no signs of issues in my lungs, but I'm still feeling light-headed and short of breath. Should I be worried about this?

Continue all the medications as advised by the dermatologist.

I'm feeling some pain in my ribs on the right side and I had an X-ray done. The report says something about "rounded joint calcific density" in the R paufrachel region and mentions "calcified nodes of various sizes." I'm not really sure what any of this means. Can you explain the report to me and suggest some treatment options?

Would love some advice.
