I'm dealing with a really stubborn cough, and it's been going on for a while now. I have asthma, high blood sugar, and pressure, and I'm taking nexophylin, pantoprazolemontair FX, and euglimM2 for everything. Do you have any suggestions for a medicine or something that might help get rid of this cough? It's just not going away. Would really appreciate your advice!

I've been using Symbicort for about 2.5 years now, just one puff twice a day. I'm 25, and recently I had a spirometry test done. My FVC came out to be 85 and my FEV1 was 80. After taking a bronchodilator and retaking the test, there wasn't a significant change. My doctor mentioned that I might just be on the low side of normal, possibly with intermittent asthma or maybe nothing at all. But then I came across information suggesting that a lack of improvement in the reversibility test could point to COPD. So now I'm wondering, should I be concerned about COPD, or am I getting ahead of myself?

I've been a smoker for 6 years, but I quit cold turkey about 9 months ago. I'm really curious, are my lungs as healthy as someone who never smoked at all?

I'm currently on medications for MDR TB and have been taking them for the past two months. For the last 15 days or so, I've been experiencing a lot of sweating during both the day and night. Is this something that's common with the treatment, or should I be worried about something else?

it is common, but start taking nutritious food as much as with high Protein
