Question

I'm thinking about taking Deriphyllin tablets along with Prednisolone tablets. I'm a bit worried if there might be any interactions or side effects when these two medications are taken together. Could you help clarify this for me?

Question

I've been dealing with a cough for the past five days, and I've also got a sore throat. The cough mostly happens at night and it's super dry. None of the meds seem to be helping so far. I've also had an X-ray done could you tell me if it looks normal?

Question

My husband finished 6 months of medication for mediastinal lymph node TB, and I've attached his reports. Originally, his node was 7cm by 3cm. During this period, he gained 9kg, and while he used to have a fever, thats gone now and his cough is a bit better. But he still coughs around 30 times a day, and I'm counting each one. Could it be something serious like cancer since his cough hasn't completely cleared up yet?

Question

I'm really worried about my husband. After having COVID, he's been diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis, and his CT scan shows about 40-50% damage. Is there a better treatment available for this condition, and is it possible for him to fully recover? What complications should we be prepared for? He's currently using oxygen support at night, and his SpO2 level is around 93. How long might it take for him to improve?
