View allI'm having this cough issue for about 23 days now. It feels like my heart's going to jump out every time I cough, and it's always a dry cough with absolutely no spit. I'm starting to get really concerned. What could this all mean? Could it be something serious?
It sounds like you're experiencing a dry, non-productive cough, which can be caused by irritation in the throat or airways. If you're feeling chest discomfort or tightness when coughing, it's important to consult a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying issues, especially if it's persisting for a few days. In the meantime, staying hydrated and using a soothing cough suppressant may help.

I'm 22 and I've been experiencing shortness of breath pretty much all the time lately. It's been a few days, and I'm starting to get really worried because it messes up my ability to talk, especially while I'm working. Is it normal to feel like this every day? What could be causing it?
Feeling shortness of breath for several days isnt normal and could indicate anything from anxiety to a respiratory or heart issue. Since its affecting your daily life, I recommend seeing a doctor soon to ensure nothing serious is overlooked. Take care, and I hope you feel better soon!

I've been having trouble sleeping for about 4 months now. It began with daily nightmares and not feeling rested, but lately, it's just that I'm not getting enough good rest. I checked my oxygen with an oximeter, and it dropped to 73. I've got an appointment at the end of the month for a sleep study consultation, but I'm wondering if I should go to urgent care instead. My symptoms are getting worse, and I'm barely managing. What do you think I should do?
Saturation is low 73.. .Patient is advised pulmonologist opinion immediately.
