Question

I'm just wondering if the Budamate 200 mcg inhaler could be harmful because I know it's a steroid. Is it as risky as other steroids? I'm also concerned about whether using it could lead to something like black fungus. I used it for about five days when I was recovering from COVID. Can you help me understand the possible side effects?

Question

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been on the AKT4 kit for her pulmonary TB, and ever since she started the medicine, she's been feeling completely exhausted, both morning and night. She's also experiencing dizziness and itchy skin at night, which is unusual for her. These symptoms only appeared after she began her treatment. Could these be side effects from the TB medication? Should we consider adjusting her dosage? She also has high blood pressure, but no diabetes. What do you think we should do?

Question

I've been having a fever sometimes along with body aches, and my chest feels heavy. The X-ray shows some air in my chest, but I tested negative for COVID. What could be causing this?

Question

I'm trying to figure out if occasional wheezing from allergies could mean I have asthma. I've noticed that using an asthalin puff helps when this happens, but I'm not sure if it's just wheezing or if it actually indicates asthma. Could you help clarify this for me?
