I'm really struggling with my breathing the last couple of days. It feels heavy and I'm breathing super fast, plus I'm yawning all the time. My heart's been racing too, and it's making me so anxious. My nose is clear and my hemoglobin's normal, so I'm at a loss about what's going on. I'm constantly worrying about my breathing now and focusing on it just seems to make it worse. Any idea what this could be? It's really stressing me out.

I'm 35 and diabetic. I started feeling unwell on June 22 with a minor cough and then a low-grade fever. I took Claribid 500 and Musinac 600 for three days. My brother wasn't feeling well for 10 days, got tested for COVID, and his result was positive. Now, four members of my family are positive. By June 27, my oxygen levels dropped, and I was admitted to the hospital. My COVID tests came back negative twice, but since I was in the ICU, all the other patients were positive. After two days, I was moved to a normal ward and treated with IV Monocef O for five days. Now I'm on tablets, Monocef O and Azithral, plus vitamin C for seven days. I don't have any symptoms now. Should I stop the medicine? My CT report looked good, and the doctor advised isolating for 10 days. So can I touch my kids after those 10 days, or should I wait 14 days? Is it okay for me to start doing household chores now? I'm worried and really want to avoid going back to the hospital. Also, could I have been COVID positive but still tested negative?

no need to take any antibiotics and consume healthy food and stay isolated for a period of 7 days and you can be free after that

I had a fever last week and also a cough for about three days. For the past three mornings, I've been noticing blood in my sputum for about 5 to 10 minutes, then nothing the rest of the day. I still have an occasional cough. Should I be worried about this? I've attached my chest X-ray and CBC. Could you take a look and let me know?

The presence of blood in your sputum, known as hemoptysis, can have various causes such as infections, inflammation, or more serious conditions like pneumonia, bronchitis, or even pulmonary embolism. Considering your symptoms and test results, I recommend a course of antibiotics to treat any underlying infection. Additionally, an antitussive medication can help with your cough. It is crucial to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
