I'm feeling really breathless for the past 5 days, but I don't have any cough or flu symptoms. I've tried taking anti-allergic and anti-acidic nasal sprays, and Ive been using steam. I've also taken Novacef 500, Xyxal M, and Sompraz 40. I've got some relief, but it's not completely better. Could you give me some advice on what else I might try?

I recently did a spirometry test and got FeV1 levels of 107. Is that normal or does it mean I might have a breathing issue? I'm also curious about what kind of breathing problems it could indicate. My oxygen saturation always seems to be around 98%, and after doing a 6-minute walking test, it stayed the same at 98% before and after. Could you help me understand what this might mean?

Normal

I'm dealing with asthma and I've been taking moticope tablets for around six years now, every other day. I think I'm getting addicted because if I miss a dose, I can't sleep at all that night, which is starting to scare me. I really don't want any long-term side effects from this. Is there any way I can break this habit? Are there any alternatives that won't cause side effects? Also, for the past year, I've been feeling a mild burning sensation when I pee. A urologist said everything looks normal, but I'm worried if it could be from the moticope tablets. Can you give me some advice?

If you experience an acute asthma attack, it is necessary to use your inhaler for relief. Monticope may cause some common side effects like anxiety, aggression, lack of sleep

I've just had a chest X-ray, and it says I have mild fibrosis in the left upper lobe. Everything else in the report seems fine. Should I be worried about this? Is this considered normal?
