I've been really worried. Back in May, I had a severe case of COVID and ended up in the hospital with a CT score of 18. My last CT scan in July showed just a bit of that ground glass opacity left. It's been about six months since I was in the hospital, and my SPO2 is around 98-99 now. Do you think I should get an X-ray or another CT scan again? Or maybe some other tests just to be sure?

View allI'm wondering how long it usually takes for my IGE levels to go down. I've been on Spirodin 650 and Montemac FX, but I'm still having trouble with my breathing. When should I start feeling like I did before?
Spirodin 650 is a brand name for Montelukast, which is used to treat asthma and allergic rhinitis. Montemac FX is a combination medication containing Montelukast and Fexofenadine, used for allergic conditions. If you are experiencing breathing problems while taking these medications, it is important to consult your doctor immediately. They may need to adjust your dosage or switch to a different medication to alleviate your symptoms. Monitoring your IGE levels is also important, but the time it takes for them to decrease can vary depending on the individual and the underlying condition. Regular follow-up with your doctor is recommended to track your progress.

I've been really worried about my dad's heavy cough. It's been going on for a while, and whoever sleeps in the same room as him can't get a good night's sleep. We've seen so many doctors, and he's tried all sorts of medicines. Some think it's bronchitis or asthma, while others have just prescribed general cough medicine. Despite trying everything, including rotahealermedicines, nothing seems to work. Could you please suggest what might be wrong or recommend something that could finally help with his cough?
Based on the information provided, it seems like your father's cough is persistent and impacting his quality of life. Since he has already tried various medications without much improvement, I would recommend trying a combination of Montelukast (brand name Singulair) 10mg once daily in the evening and FluticasoneSalmeterol (brand name Advair) inhaler 25050mcg two puffs twice daily. These medications can help manage symptoms of asthma-related cough and provide relief. Additionally, steam inhalation and staying hydrated can also help alleviate cough symptoms. It's important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
