I'm having a hard time breathing and feel like I need to open my mouth every now and then just to catch a breath. It's weird because my breathing seems normal when I'm sleeping, but it's like something's blocking my throat. I don't have a fever or body aches, but my chest feels heavy and I've got this gassy feeling too. I tried holding my breath for 30 seconds and it was fine, but I still need to take deep breaths through my mouth, and even then, it doesn't feel quite right. What could be going on?

I'm really worried about my family member who is COVID positive and is using budecort through a nebulizer along with other medications. The oxygen level is usually around 98-97, but after taking budecort, they feel breathless for about 30 minutes and the oxygen level drops to 95 but then it recovers after a bit. They're also on meds like montair LC, medrol, zocef CV, pulmoclear, dolo 650, zincovit, vitamin C, and taking anticoagulant injections. They finished courses of ivermectin, doxycycline, and fabiflu. Can you help me understand why this breathlessness happens after using budecort? Are there any remedies or steps we can take to prevent this?
The breathlessness experienced after budecort nebulization may be due to bronchospasm, which can be a side effect of the medication. One remedy to alleviate this is to use a bronchodilator such as Salbutamol inhaler. You can use Salbutamol inhaler 100 mcg as needed to relieve the breathlessness symptoms. Additionally, you can consider reducing the dose of budecort to 0.25 mg for nebulization to see if it helps in reducing the side effects while still maintaining the therapeutic effect. It is important to monitor the oxygen levels closely during this adjustment. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

I'm a 33-year-old guy and I've been dealing with a cough for the past 20 days. Along with the cough, I'm noticing yellow-light green mucus. I've been using whey protein for about a month since I started working out at the gym, and I'm wondering if it might be the reason for my issues. I stopped using it three days ago, but the cough hasn't gone away. I also used to eat raw spinach and broccoli but I've quit those too. My cough tends to worsen when I'm lying down to sleep, and it feels like my chest really fills up with mucus, especially early in the morning. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
