I'm having some trouble breathing, but both my chest X-ray and ECG came back normal. They mentioned there's a bit of congestion, and I'm on medication for that. The thing is, my oximeter is reading my oxygen level at 91. Should I be worried about this?

I'm really worried about my dad; hes been in the ICU for 12 days now with this new type of pneumonia the doctors mentioned. There's still no improvement in his condition, and hes on a ventilator to support his breathing. It all started with a cough and a fever, so we thought it was swine flu and took him to the hospital, but the swine flu test was negative, and his heart seems fine. But hes still struggling to breathe normally. They said something about fluid in his oxygen pathways or possibly ARDS. Im really confused and unsure of what to do next, and I could send you his medical reports and prescriptions if that helps. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm dealing with a cough that comes with phlegm and a bit of a wheezing sound. I took a chest X-ray PA yesterday and I've attached the report. Can you tell me if everything looks normal? Right now, I'm using Ambrocof LS for the cough. Also, I have a one-year-old baby. Can you suggest any medication for me?
