Question 1

I'm feeling feverish for the past 10 days, and it's been really worrying me. Back on May 17th, I had a bad case of breathlessness, so I saw a pulmonologist who recommended some tests. My IGE test result was 528 and the absolute eosinophils count was 600. He also had me do a PFT and then prescribed Spirodin M and Budetrol400 inhaler. What's puzzling is this constant feverish feeling, though I don't have any body pain, headache, or breathing problemsno symptoms like corona, thankfully. It's mostly after eating, but it doesnt seem connected to any specific food. Do you think there's any other test I should do, or should I go visit another doctor? Would love any advice you might have.

Accepted Answer

visit a pulmonologist

Question 2

I'm 25 and having a bit of a scare here. I've been coughing up this black phlegm, dealing with nasal congestion, and feeling breathless, but it gets a bit better after I cough. I havent smoked ever, and I live in an area with clean air, so Im really confused. What could be going on with me? And what kind of medication should I be considering? Also, I'm not experiencing any cough or fever along with it.

Accepted Answer

it might be acute bronchitis

Question 3

I'm just a bit concerned about some lingering symptoms after recovering from COVID-19. I spent 9 days in the hospital and was discharged once my symptoms eased up. My CT chest report mentioned 5 to 10 viral pneumonia with no fibrosis, and they said it was corad 5. Bloodwork was all normal. It's been 30 days now, but I still have a mild dry cough, tightness in my chest, and occasional nausea that comes and goes. Is this something to worry about, or is it a normal part of the recovery process? Also, is the 5 to 10 viral pneumonia significant, or nothing too serious?

Accepted Answer

it is normal, but try increasing your immunity

I'm kind of worried about my chest X-ray results. It says there's increased bronchovascular markings and the hila is prominent. Is this a normal finding, or should I be concerned about any potential issues? I'm not really sure what it all means and would really appreciate some clarity.
