I'm working a night shift from 3:00 PM to 12:00 AM, and I've been having this issue where my breathing stops while I'm asleep. When I wake up in the morning, I end up vomiting, and there's also this white spit. It's honestly quite worrying, and I could really use some advice on what's going on here. Any insights would be appreciated.

View allI'm dealing with some really frustrating wheezing and breathing issues that started back in January. It seems like something specific is triggering it, but I can't figure out what. I've had severe wheezing four times and had to get Deriphyllin injections, but they don't seem to be helping much. I did notice that it might be related to eating non-veg food, as my asthma flares up afterwards, and this time, even Deriphyllin isn't fixing it. Can you recommend the right kind of inhaler I should use for a lasting solution to this allergic asthma?
Seroflo inhaler sos is advised to the pt for wheezing.

I've been feeling a bit off lately. My chest feels heavy, so I got an x-ray done. They said everything looked normal except there's something called "hilar prominence" on the right side. I'm a smokercould that be the reason? Is this something I should be worried about? Also, I've noticed it hurts a bit when I shout or laugh. Could that be related?
Hilar prominence refers to the enlargement of the lymph nodes or blood vessels near the center of the chest, called the hilum. It's often seen in smokers, but its not necessarily serious. Since your chest X-ray came back normal otherwise, its likely not a major concern. However, if you're experiencing pain when laughing or shouting, its a good idea to follow up with a doctor for further evaluation.

I'm in the military and ended up in Germany about a year and a half ago. Running's always been my thing and I've never had issues with it before. But then last August, out of nowhere, I started feeling this sharp chest pain when I was out on a run. At first, it didn't show up until around three miles in, but now I can't even manage a mile without feeling it. I got an inhaler and it worked at the beginning, but now it seems useless. I'm just 22, and I'm not sure what's going on. Any ideas on what this could be or what I should do next?
increase the dose of inhaler and increasethe frequency of using it
