I'm having some trouble with my breathing that's been going on for about 10-12 days. I'm constantly feeling the need to take deep breaths, yet exercising like jogging or using stairs doesnt seem to be a problem. It's odd because I'm yawning a lot during the day, and it seems to get worse at night. I'm really puzzled and a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I've been dealing with some issues ever since I had pneumonia back in 2013. I'm still using a corticosteroid inhaler, and every time I try to stop, I end up with wheezing sounds in my lungs and a persistent cough. I'm really wondering if my lungs will ever get back to normal after having pneumonia that one time. Is using the corticosteroid inhaler something I'm going to have to do for the rest of my life? Are there any other remedies or advice you could suggest?

Seroflo inhaler sos is advised to the pt for wheezing.

I'm really concerned about my friend's oxygen saturation levels. When she's lying down, it's around 85-89, but when she sits up, it improves to 92-93. She's currently on TB medication, and with 2L of oxygen, she can maintain a saturation of 92-95. I just want to know how her saturation can get back to normal levels. Any tips or advice on what we might do differently?

Continue same treatment for 2 days.

I'm currently undergoing TB treatment, and it's been about three weeks. I've been feeling really weak and lethargic, I've lost some weight, and I'm experiencing fever, chills, and a tight feeling in my chest. Also, my alkaline phosphate level is up to 129 uL.
