My mom's been on atorva for the past couple of years, but she's recently started having this weird dry cough that we can't really explain. Could this be a side effect of atorva? I've read that it might lead to interstitial lung disease or something like that. She's 53, by the way. Could that be related?

I've been having some mucus in my respiratory tract, and it's a bit weird because there's no cough or fever. But every morning, I notice this sound when I'm breathing in, and it's really uncomfortable. I'm wondering what might be causing this and if there's something I should be doing about it?

Please get your pulmonary function test done and also Chest xray. See a Pulmonologist in your area.
