I've been struggling to breathe properly for the past 10 months and I've already had two pulmonary function testsone back in December 2017 and another in March 2018. Could you help me understand what the results from these tests mean? I'm really concerned and just want to know what's going on with my lungs.

I'm a bit concerned because for the past year, I've been dealing with excess mucus, especially in the morning, and it's usually yellow or gray. I did an IgE test and an X-ray back in April, and the doctor said it was a seasonal allergy, suggesting I take Montek LC at bedtime for a month, but I only stuck with it for a week. Occasionally, about once a week or even less, I get shortness of breath around bedtime. Recently, I got the Covaxin vaccine about five days ago, and since then, I've noticed that my blood pressure is a bit low at 10570, and I've been getting shortness of breath and a rapid heartbeat at times. Could this be from the vaccine, or is it the allergies acting up? I also experience some gastric issues, like passing a lot of gas. I work out almost daily and don't have any other health problems, my SPO2 levels are usually between 96 and 98. What do you think I should do for treatment?

Is coffee good for lungs?

From limited research done, coffee consumption was associated with some positive effects on the respiratory system. Few small studies have shown coffee was associated with reduction of asthma and coffee with natural honey was effective for persistent post-infectious cough. There was however limited available evidence to establish its effects.
