I'm really worried about my father's CO2 level, which is at 85 in his blood. He's currently in the ICU at IGIMS Patna. Can anyone advise on how we might be able to lower it? Is it possible to reduce his CO2 level while he's there?

I'm really concerned because I've been coughing up blood and having trouble breathing. My oxygen level has dropped to around 93, and I'm feeling a lot of chest tightness. The cough is red and has clots in it. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

Ecg ,x-ray chest pa view and sputum for AFB and culture and sensitivity test is advised to the patient.

I'm having a really hard time with these random sudden attacks where I feel like I can't breathe. I've seen three different doctors and they all told me it's some kind of syndrome caused by stress. But honestly, I'm not sure if that's really what's going on because it just happens out of nowhere. Is it possible that it was stress-related at first and now it's something more? What should I actually get checked to figure out what's going on with these breathing issues?

do a chest xray
