I'm really concerned about my dad; he's in the semi-ICU right now. Can anyone please guide me on what kind of food would be best for him since he's dealing with pneumonia? What kind of diet should we follow to help him get better?

View allI'm trying to figure out if I might have asthma because ever since I had COVID back in January, I've been experiencing these weird episodes. For about 10 minutes at a time, I feel this deep wheezing vibration in my right lung when I breathe deeply. Its especially noticeable in the mornings, and sometimes its even audible, kind of like snoring. I can feel it throughout my right chest, both front and back. These episodes started about five months ago and while they were irregular at first, they're happening more often now. Sometimes, coughing can start or stop these episodes, but it usually stops them. Ive got POTS and no known lung issues, although I've had pneumonia a few times as a kid and tend to catch colds and coughs easily. Does this sound like asthma or something else I should be worried about?

I've been having a really bad cough with lots of white phlegm, and my doctor recommended I take Cepodem XP 325. It's not getting better though, so I'm wondering if it's okay to add Pulmoclear along with Cepodem. What do you think?
It's best to consult your doctor before adding Pulmoclear with Cepodem XP 325, as combining medications may need careful consideration. If your cough persists, a follow-up with your doctor might help to adjust your treatment plan.
