I'm feeling really concerned as I've been dealing with asthma for the past 20 years. Right now, I'm under the care of Dr. Jafrey, but I'm also managing diabetes. I'm curious about how these two conditions might be affecting each other or if the treatments could be interacting in any way. Could this be impacting my asthma management, and is there anything specific I should be keeping in mind?

I've had asthma for 15 years, and it's usually pretty mild. I've been using a Foracort inhaler 400 when needed. Lately, I've noticed that sometimes I feel like I'm breathing too fast and have some breathing issues, especially when I close my mouth. This only happens occasionally, and it's almost like I only notice it when I think about it. Also, just today, I started having a little dry cough and a slight irritation in my throat that feels bitter, but it's only when I cough. Should I be worried about these new symptoms, or is it just a passing thing? Would love your advice on what could be going on.

I'm really concerned about my husband. He had COVID back in September 2021, and ever since we're worried about his lungs. He's been taking medication for pulmonary lung fibrosis for the last four months. I'm attaching his recent CT scan of his lungs. Can you tell if there's been any improvement? And how much longer might it take for him to fully recover?

I've been dealing with some allergy problems lately, and when I saw a doctor, they had me do an allergy test and a chest X-ray. They mentioned there might be an infection in my chest. I decided to consult another doctor who requested a Montoux (Mantoux) test, and it came back with a 14mm result. I'm a bit worried about what all this could mean. Could you help me understand these results and the possible implications?

Probable diagnosis is allergy. Patient is advised tab allergra 120 mg orally ,bedtime for 14 days. Also tab augmentin duo 625mg is advised,orally,twice daily for 7 days.
