I'm really concerned about my father's health. His chest X-ray and CT scan show viral pneumonia, and even though his COVID test came back negative, the pulmonologist suggested repeating it because there might be a false negative. He's been admitted to a hospital and they're giving him five tablets all at once. Could you help me understand what these tablets are for?

View allI'm really worried about my mom who's been diagnosed with pneumonia at St. Luke's E.R. The doctor gave her medication for just 15 days, but she's still struggling with a cough that keeps her up all night and it's affecting her sleep. We're really concerned because she's not allowed to leave the house, and we want to find out if theres a different medication or treatment that might help her. Who can we reach out to for more advice? Would appreciate any guidance!

I'm really worried because I tested positive for COVID-19 on May 4th, but luckily I had no symptoms and stayed in home isolation without needing steroids or oxygen. I've been experiencing some mild fatigue and sometimes a bit of a cough, but nothing serious, and I had congestion for just a couple of days. I've been taking Montekulsta for 10 days now. My breathing seems fine, but whenever I do steam inhalation, I notice white phlegm with black streaks in it. There's no phlegm if I skip the steam. Ive been like this for two days and my sugar levels after meals are around 158. Should I be concerned about black fungus infection and go for any specific tests to rule it out?
