Ive been dealing with chronic bronchitis and it's really been affecting my sleepI can barely get a good night's rest with the insomnia. Plus, I've been having chest congestion, indigestion, and even some internal bleeding. It's getting to the point where I need more and more oxygen, and I'm finding myself having to take big breaths through my mouth. Do you have any suggestions or info on how to manage these symptoms better? I'm getting pretty worried about my health.

I've been dealing with this really bad cough for almost 20 days now. It's mostly at night and comes with mild yellow sputum. Sometimes, the coughing gets so bad that I feel breathless, and its tough to even sit up straight. I havent had any fever, body pain, or other symptoms like COVID-19, and I havent traveled or been in contact with anyone who could've been sick. Ive tried nebulizers, steam, gargling, but nothing seems to help. What could be causing this, and how can I find some relief?

I've been having some trouble breathing for a couple of days. It's like I'm struggling to catch my breath, but it's more than just shadow breathing. I haven't noticed any other symptoms, but it's starting to worry me. Do you have any idea what might be causing this or what I should do about it?

I'm experiencing this issue where my breathing feels low during the night, even though all my tests like PFT, echo, and TMT are normal. I live in a hilly area, and I'm wondering if that's affecting my oxygen levels at night. Could moving to a flatter area help with getting more oxygen? Is there a particular reason that might justify relocating?
