Question 2

I've been having some issues for a while now and I'm hoping you can help me out. Last year, during the first wave of covid, I had a fever and all the symptoms but never actually got tested. I just went to a nearby hospital, took some steroids and tablets, and then recovered. But ever since, for about nine months now, I've been dealing with this constant mucus coming from my lungs and throat through my mouth, and there's this stuck feeling and congestion in my chest. I've seen a lot of doctors and gone through all sorts of tests like blood, urine, X-Ray, ECG, and even a hologram scan, but they all say everything is fine. I'm still really struggling with these issues. Any ideas what might be going on?

Question 3

I'm dealing with this thing called bronchitis asthma for like 8 years now. Currently, I'm on Montair LC and using Maxiflow 250 rotacaps. Here's the thingwhenever the weather changes, I end up with this nasty cold and a bad cough with green phlegm, and there's a little chest pain too. The Montair LC helps a bit, but it makes me super sleepy afterward. Could you recommend something that might help without making me feel so drowsy?
