I'm really worried about my health situation. I've had childhood asthma and sinusitis, and the usual things like dust and cold triggers really affect me. Usually, it wasn't a big deal, but since I hit 31, especially during the pandemic, the shortness of breath has gotten worse. I was using SEROFLO 250 now and then, but it never seemed serious until I got COVID-19 in early 2022. My breathing issues got really bad, so I used SEROFLO more often and for consecutive days. Now Im facing something scaryevery time I use SEROFLO, I get severe dizziness, heart palpitations, sleep problems, increased shortness of breath, and theres pain in my left arm. Im super anxious if these are signs of a heart issue. Do you think the SEROFLO is causing these symptoms or could this be something else like a heart problem? What should I do?

I'm 33 years old and really struggling with asthma and some gastro issues. Plus, I'm quite overweight at 91 kg, and I think dropping about 20 kg might help with the asthma. Do you have any advice or can you recommend any medicine or tablets that would be suitable for me?

I've been dealing with chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, and lately, I've noticed some changes. My oxygen level sticks around 96-98, which is pretty normal for me, but a month ago, I got hit with COVID. During that time, I was mostly coughing with phlegm and felt really tired, but not much else. Now that I've recovered from COVID, I'm still feeling really worn out. I'm having a dry cough about 6-7 times a day, which never happened to me before, and my chest hurts a bit when I yawn. Plus, I've started feeling a bit of difficulty in breathing that lasts for 3-5 seconds. I used to be perfectly fine before all this. Any idea what's going on?

I'm currently undergoing TB treatment and it's been around four months, but I've noticed some blood in my early morning cough sputum again. It's been worrying me, and I'm unsure if this is normal or something to be concerned about. What should I do from here? Could it mean something's not going as planned with my treatment?
