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'm hearing a whistling sound when I breathe out, especially in the mornings. Coughing happens too, but it's pretty rare. I've been taking monticope and using an aerocort inhaler for relief when the issues kick in. Can you help me understand why this is happening and if there's anything else I should be doing about it?

I'm really in need of some advice on this annoying chest pain I've been experiencing. I had covid back in January with a really bad cough and something called "covid tongue." My HRCT scan looked normal, and I was treated with Fabiflu. But a week after I started feeling better, I began getting this dull chest pain mostly around my sternum. I got an X-ray, which mentioned increased bronchovascular prominence, and a PFT showed COPD in the restrictive area with moderate obstruction. My doctor put me on Foracort 200 and some muscle relaxants, which helped, but the pain still bugs me at night, sometimes radiating to my mid-back. I've had two normal ECGs and another CT scan recently, which showed nothing unusual in my lungs. It's been four months, and I'm still waking up with this chest pain. What's going on with me, and how much longer might this take to get better?

it is restrictive lung disease and it will almost take 2-3 months to treat it

Hey, my oxygen saturation is 98. Does that mean I might have COPD or be at risk for developing it? Should I be concerned about any chest issues? What do you think?
