Question 1

I'm really worried about how my body is reacting to the ATT medications. It seems like none of the four drugs are tolerable, whether I take them alone or together. I've started getting ulcers in my mouth and throat, and I'm constantly feeling weak and tired. Could you please advise on how I can manage these side effects or if there are any alternative treatments I should consider?

Accepted Answer

take tablet b complex for 15 days, daily once

Question 2

I'm really concerned about my dad. He's been dealing with COPD after smoking for 35 years, but he quit cigarettes three years ago. He also had CAD and underwent CABG three years back. He's on medication for his heart, and all his tests are coming back normal now. For COPD, he used to take Fluticasone, Salmeterol, and Tiotropium Bromide but these days, he's just on Seroflo 250 BD. The issue we're having is with nighttime  as soon as he lies down to sleep, he starts producing sputum and has to cough it up. He doesn't have problems sitting up, and there's no orthopnea or nocturnal apnea, just sputum, so he's been taking Levocetirizine and Montelukast for that. I'm wondering if we should add back TIOVA? Also, is it okay for him to use Monticope daily? And with his substernal hernia, is it still safe for him to do his breathing exercises by lifting the ball? Would really appreciate some guidance.

Question 3

I've been experiencing some light crackling sounds in my right lung base, but only when I lie down stretched out. Even when I hold my breath and push in the central lung area, the crackles tend to come and go. If I shift my position even slightly, they disappear. There's no chest pain, and these crackles are just occasional. Should I be worried about this, or could it be something serious?

Accepted Answer

The light crackles youre experiencing may be related to mild lung congestion or postural changes affecting air flow, which can be common and not usually serious, especially if theres no chest pain or difficulty breathing. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, it's a good idea to consult a doctor for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with this flux and cough issue that keeps coming back every month. It usually takes about a week to get better, but it's been over a year now with no real solution. Is there anything I can do to get rid of this for good?
