I'm taking 4 mg of asthalin regularly and for the past three days, I've been experiencing a faster heart rate and some shivering. It's also been really weird that when I try to sleep, I suddenly wake up in shock with an increased heart rate. What could be causing this and should I be worried?

I'm having trouble breathing properly and there's always this wheezing in my chest. When I walk, it's hard to catch my breath, and I'm also coughing a lot. I've tried taking azithromycin 500 once and using Dilosyn syrup. Can you suggest something for this constant wheezing? Are there any home remedies that might help? It's really frustrating.

I'm really worried about my aunt. She's dealing with COVID and her lungs are infected. Right now, she's on a ventilator in a private hospital. She doesn't have any other health issues like diabetes or high blood pressure; she just has thyroid problems. I have her HRCT scan report here too. The doctors mentioned she'll be on the ventilator for about 5 days. Can you tell me if she's going to be okay? How serious is her condition? Is this something she can recover from?

I've been diagnosed with tuberculosis and they've also found fibrotic band opacities in my lungs. Is this the same as lung fibrosis, and if so, does it get worse over time? I'm really freaking out about this and would appreciate any insights.

Tuberculosis and fibrotic band opacities are not the same as lung fibrosis, although they can be related. Tuberculosis is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, while fibrotic band opacities are a type of scarring that can occur in the lungs due to various reasons, including infections like tuberculosis. Lung fibrosis, on the other hand, is a specific condition characterized by progressive scarring of the lung tissue. In your case, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management.
