I'm really concerned about constantly feeling short of breath, especially when I try to do tasks or any hard work like climbing a ladder. I'm wondering why that's happening and what I should do about it.

I'm not sure if the phlegm is coming from my throat or lungs, but I've been dealing with thick, little grey phlegm every day. I don't smoke and the air quality is good where I live. My chest CT and PFT came back normal, but I'm still experiencing daily desaturation. Could there be something else I should look into?

Tab Azithromycin 500mg,orally for 3 days is advised to the patient.

Can I mix Duolin and Budecort in my nebulizer? This is my first time using one, and Im a bit unsure. Also, should I be adding something else like saline solution?

Yes, Duolin (Ipratropium and Salbutamol) and Budecort (Budesonide) can be mixed together in a nebulizer for administration. However, it's recommended to dilute the mixture with Normal Saline (NS) to a total volume of 4-6 mL, as undiluted solutions can be too concentrated and may cause irritation

I'm really worried about my mom. After she had severe Covid with pneumonia, her HRCT showed ground glass opacity. We did another HRCT later and it mentioned scattered ground glass opacity and something called Koch's lesion. Now, a year later, her CT scan shows a few lung nodules, with the largest being 9mm, and the doctor is suggesting a bronchoscopy. I'm confused and scared about why this is happening. Also, she has severe OSA and uses a machine at night. Could you help me understand what's going on and why the bronchoscopy is needed?

there is still infection persisting in lung. since there's a nodule ,need to rule out other causes soo better proceed for bronchoscopy
