I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to tell the difference between a cough that's from an infection and one that's because of fluid in the lungs. At first, my doctor gave me antibiotics and cough syrup, but they didn't help my cough. Then, when my coughing got really bad, I saw another doctor who gave me Lasix, and that actually worked right away. So, is there a way to know if a cough is more likely from fluid in the lungs rather than an infection? It would really help to understand if there's a distinct difference so I can feel more sure about what's causing my cough.

View allI'm having these weird palpitations and short jerks in my chest lasting just a couple of seconds, but it's not like they happen at any specific time. It really feels awkward when it happens, almost like my heart stops for a moment. What's strange is that even though I exercise regularly, I don't feel any pain in my chest. I've done ECG, 2D Echo, and Holter tests, and they all came back normal. So, Im really wondering, do you think I might have some sort of cardiac blockage? Are these episodes a sign of something serious like a cardiac arrest in the future? Or if it's not something major with my heart, what else could be causing these jerks and palpitations?

I'm concerned about my mother-in-law's medication. The doctor prescribed her Rosuvastatin 20mg, but we only have 10mg tablets at home. Can she take two 10mg tablets instead to make up the dose?
To achieve the prescribed dosage of Rosuvastatin 20mg for your mother-in-law, you can take two tablets of Rosuvastatin 10mg at the same time. This will provide the intended dosage as recommended by the doctor.
