I'm really worried about my wife's health. A couple of days ago, she started having severe pain and then found it hard to breathe, so we rushed to the closest hospital. Her breathing was really limited, maybe only happening every 10 to 15 seconds. The doctors there suggested we head to a larger hospital right away. It felt like we were about to lose her, but thankfully, once they gave her oxygen, she began to breathe normally within a few minutes. However, her pain continued for nearly an hour afterward. They ran some tests like x-rays, ultrasound, CBC, and lipase, and everything came back normal, so they let her go. But then the following night, she had a similar breathing issue, though she seemed fine after about 5 minutes. The same thing happened again this morning. I'm starting to get really concerned. Is this something serious that we should be worried about? She also forgets things quickly, sometimes shakes, and looks shocked when we wake her up from sleep. Could there be some psychological issues at play here too? I'm at a loss because she was never like this before, not even during COVID, and she doesn't have asthma. I'm really eager to know what's going on with her breathing issues. Any insight would be really helpful.

View allI've been noticing some blood-colored mucus once in a while over the past few weeks, and for the past two months, it's been feeling like my breathing is sometimes obstructed. I just got a body check and everything came back normal, including the blood test, but they didnt explain why I'm seeing the blood-colored mucus. Is this something I should be worried about, like could it be a sign of lung cancer?
X-ray chest pa view,complete blood count,esr,C-reactive protein ,IGE levels and sputum for AFB and microscopy is advised to the patient.

I've had this cough with mucus for almost a month now, and it's really starting to worry me. The doctors say it's allergic bronchitis, and my x-ray showed something, but even with the medication, I feel like I'm only getting partial relief. I still hear this wheezing sound in my chest that makes it hard to breathe. They just prescribed me an inhaler, Seroflo 250, for emergencies, but I'm not really satisfied with how things are going, especially since its been dragging on for so long. Plus, after taking Augmentin, I feel a kind of stabbing pain in the middle of my right lung and a slight pain in my right kidneynot too bad, but its there. They suggested checking for COVID, but when I called the helpline, they said I didnt have the symptoms. I'm honestly super confused about what to do next. Im willing to continue treatment but just need some answers about what's really going on. What should be my next steps?

Can you help me understand what's going on and if I should be taking any medication for it?
