I'm wondering if it's really important to carry an inhaler in my pocket when I leave the house, especially if I sometimes get asthma attacks. Can I just keep it with me for emergencies when I'm out?

I'm worried because my mom's oxygen levels drop when she sleeps. The doctors mentioned that her lungs aren't expelling enough oxygen when she breathes out. She's 67 years old, weighs 95 kg, and is about 5 feet tall. Do you have any advice on what we can do to help her?
Your mother's condition, known as sleep-related hypoxemia, may be related to obesity-hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) or sleep apnea, given her weight and age; consider consulting a pulmonologist or sleep specialist for a thorough evaluation, including a sleep study, and potential treatments like continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy, oxygen supplementation, or weight loss strategies to improve her oxygen levels and overall health.

I've had TB before back in 2010, but I got through it with treatment. Recently though, I've been experiencing some worrying symptoms. I've got a little chest pain mainly on the right side, there's dry coughing, and it kind of feels like there's a bloody taste in my mouth when I'm trying to get to sleep. There's also some appetite loss going on. Could these be signs of something serious, or am I overthinking it?
do sputum test once
