I've been dealing with post-COVID issues and I'm really worried. Had COVID about six weeks ago, recovered at home, but after 15 days started having breathing difficulties and fatigue. The first doctor gave me the Foracart inhaler, but it caused a throat infection, so I stopped and took antibiotics instead. Then I got really bad allergy symptoms like sneezing and a runny nose, and my shortness of breath got worse. I changed doctors and they tested my IGe and PFT. The PFT came back normal, but my IGe is 3050. I was given Momeflo Montek BL for a month. Should I be concerned about this? And how long might it take for me to start feeling better?

I've been dealing with COPD and I'm having trouble with my breathing. I'm wondering if it's better for me to use a BiPAP machine with oxygen or should I switch to a BiPAP AVAPS? What's the difference and which one might be more helpful in my situation? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

Bipap is advised to the patient.Pulmonologist opinion is advised.
