I'm really worried about my mom. She's diabetic and has been dealing with a productive cough for the last week. We've been giving her Macpod CV 200 twice a day for five days and there has been some improvement, but I'm wondering what the best medicine would be to help her fully recover?

I'm having trouble breathing all day and it's making me really anxious. I've had issues with acid reflux and anxiety before, and I'm getting treatment for them, but yesterday my breathing got worse. I couldn't sleep all night because of it. I don't have a history of asthma or cold or chest pain, but I feel like I'm not getting enough oxygen through my mouth and nose. It's super frustrating, and even yawning feels difficult. I did an echo and an ECG last month and both were normal. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really worried and need some advice. My dad tested positive for COVID on the 17th, but I tested negative, though I've got typhoid. I'm on cefixime, arithromyzin, and mucolyte, plus I've received 6 monocef injections. Lately, I've been dealing with this frothy mucus coming out of my mouth, and my nose is completely blocked. It's making it impossible for me to sleep because my throat's full of it, and my breathing keeps stopping. Is this mucus thing something to do with typhoid, or could it be something else going on? I'm feeling pretty anxious about it.

I've had a cough problem since I was a kid, especially in April and June because of dust. I'm 24 now and have tried so many medicines, but nothing seems to work. My doctor told me to use levolin and budecort, but I'm still struggling. Is there anything else you think might help me get rid of this issue? Any advice would be great.
