I'm dealing with asthma and I've been taking moticope tablets for around six years now, every other day. I think I'm getting addicted because if I miss a dose, I can't sleep at all that night, which is starting to scare me. I really don't want any long-term side effects from this. Is there any way I can break this habit? Are there any alternatives that won't cause side effects? Also, for the past year, I've been feeling a mild burning sensation when I pee. A urologist said everything looks normal, but I'm worried if it could be from the moticope tablets. Can you give me some advice?

If you experience an acute asthma attack, it is necessary to use your inhaler for relief. Monticope may cause some common side effects like anxiety, aggression, lack of sleep

View allI'm really worried about my lungs as I've been a smoker, but I quit. I haven't had breathing issues so far, but I'm concerned they might pop up in the future. I do yoga and breathing exercises regularlycan those help repair my damaged cilia, or should I see a pulmonologist? Are there any pre-treatments available? I'd appreciate any advice you can offer.

I'm currently using an Asthalin inhaler for my asthma, but I'm wondering if there's a better alternative out there. I really want to manage my asthma more effectively. Do you know of any inhalers that might work better or offer improved management?
Only asthalin is used only in a very mild form of asthma. If the asthma is not controlled on asthalin only, you may have to use other inhalers. It is best that you show a chest physician who can examine and prescribe you appropriate inhaler.

I recently had an x-ray for a job requirement and the results mentioned minimal hazed infiltrates in the lateral aspect of my left upper lung, and fibrotic densities in the left perihilar region. They also asked for an apicolordotic chest x-ray. I had PTB back in 2014 and was cleared after six months of treatment. Does this mean the PTB might have returned or is it something else?
Hello, based on your recent X-ray results, it seems there are some mild changes in your left lung, possibly related to previous pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). The fibrotic densities suggest healed areas from your past illness. The doctor is likely asking for an apicolordotic chest X-ray to get a clearer view of the upper lung for further assessment. It's good to monitor, but these findings don't necessarily indicate active disease.
