I'm having trouble with my breathing lately, and there's this constant humming noise when I'm sleeping. I've also been dealing with a prolonged cough, and sometimes it feels like there's a sizzling sensation throughout my body. What could be going on with me?

View allI'm feeling a bit unsure about my diagnosis and the treatment I've been prescribed. I've been told I have ILD and IPF, specifically idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis Stage I, and my doctor has suggested taking Acetylcysteine 600 mg effervescent tablets for the IPF. Do you think this is the right approach? Could it really help with the phlegm I'm experiencing in my nose and throat? Just wanting to make sure I'm on the right track here.
yes it is sufficient. start steam inhalation along with it

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been on TB treatment for a month now, but her cough hasn't really gotten any better. Her appetite seems fine, and she's even gained a few kilos. There's no fever or sweating, which is good, but the bloody cough and irritation are alarming and she's feeling really fatigued. Her chest X-ray shows sputum negative. What could be going on, and what should we do next?
It's good to hear that your wifes appetite is improving and she has gained weight. However, the persistent cough, fatigue, and blood in the sputum should be monitored closely. I recommend consulting her doctor to reassess her treatment plan and rule out any complications or need for further investigation, as these symptoms may require adjustment of her therapy or additional tests.

I'm wondering how long it usually takes for my IGE levels to go down. I've been on Spirodin 650 and Montemac FX, but I'm still having trouble with my breathing. When should I start feeling like I did before?
Spirodin 650 is a brand name for Montelukast, which is used to treat asthma and allergic rhinitis. Montemac FX is a combination medication containing Montelukast and Fexofenadine, used for allergic conditions. If you are experiencing breathing problems while taking these medications, it is important to consult your doctor immediately. They may need to adjust your dosage or switch to a different medication to alleviate your symptoms. Monitoring your IGE levels is also important, but the time it takes for them to decrease can vary depending on the individual and the underlying condition. Regular follow-up with your doctor is recommended to track your progress.
