I'm having trouble with shortness of breath, and it feels like I can't exhale properly. I keep yawning a lot, and it only helps for a while. I've had a chest X-ray, ECG, and CBC, and everything came back normal. My blood pressure and oxygen levels are fine too. I don't have asthma or pneumonia, but my eosinophils count is a bit high at 8.6 when the range is 0-6.0, though the absolute count is within the range. This breathing thing happened before but didn't bother me as much. I've seen a cardiologist and a general physician, and they've said it's due to anxiety, but I can't wrap my head around anxiety causing this all day and night. Do you have any suggestions on what might be going on or what I can do to get some relief?

I'm trying to make sense of a chest ultrasound report and figure out if a pleural effusion should be drained. Is there any way to tell how much fluid is too much, or any specific measurements I should be looking for? I'm really unsure about what indicates a need for drainage.

it should be done clinically

I'm a bit worried about something I read in a report: there's something called a "suspicious infiltration" in my right upper lobe. I work full-time, and I'm wondering if that's okay, considering this condition? Should I be concerned about continuing my job as usual?
