I'm dealing with chest congestion and some breathing issues all day, which is making me feel really anxious and panicky. It's pretty uncomfortable and concerning. Do you think I should be worried about anything major, and is there something specific I can do to ease this?

I'm planning a trip to Leh where the altitude ranges from 10,000 to 18,000 feet, but I've got some concerns. I had a heart bypass surgery back in 2004 and was diagnosed with ILD in 2015. I'm currently taking six Pirfenex daily. Do you think it would be safe for me to go on this trip to such high altitudes, or could it pose any risks to my health?
its better you avoid high altitude at this point

I'm having a really hard time breathing normally. I used to smoke regularly, but I've quit that habit recently. Now, when I breathe, it feels like the muscles on the left side of my chest are stretching, and I can't seem to breathe properly. I've also stopped drinking alcohol, which I did before. One side of my nose seems to work okay, but the other side doesn't. Could this be related to quitting smoking or something else?
stop smoking take pantop 40mg
