I've been dealing with this choking sensation for almost a year now, and it really feels like I'm short of breath. I end up coughing a lot, trying to make it better, and it kind of feels like I'm going to vomit, but nothing ever comes outno vomiting, no sputum. I haven't had any fever either. I got a chest X-ray done a couple of days ago and everything seemed normal, and about five months ago, I had an HD Chest Scan, 2D Echo, and another X-rayall normal too. I'm taking Montek LC half a tablet at night and using an inhaler, but nothing's helping. What could this be?

My dad's been in the hospital for a month because of covid, and 20 of those days were in the ICU with ventilator NIV support. After he got diagnosed with covid-19, he's also dealing with pulmonary fibrosis. The CT scan says it's a follow-up case of covid-19 pneumonia with severe changes, and mentions things like ground glass attenuation, septal thickening, traction bronchiectasis, and bronchiolectasis in his lungs. There's also some emphysematous changes in his right upper lobe and mild elevation of the right diaphragm dome. The liver and spleen look normal, but there's a small cyst in his liver's left lobe. I'm really worried is this something that can get better?
