I'm in my 7th month of yb treatment, and I've had some allergy issues. My doctor gave me budamate with lupihalet, but ever since I started them, my breathing feels worse. Earlier, breathing wasn't much of a problem, and I had foracort inhalet at home, but I never really needed to use it. I'm also on Rcinex 600 for my TB. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

His CRP is 40.5 mg, serum LDH is 823.1 UL, D-Dimer is 319.92 ngmL, and ferritin is 769.63 ngmL. His oxygen levels keep fluctuating between 90 and 92, occasionally hitting 93 or 94. He started on steroids and anticoagulants from May 1st, but before that, he had dexona and deriphyllin for about one and a half days at the end of April. What should we do next? Is there anything specific we need to watch out for or ask his doctor about?
