I've been struggling with breathing issues for the past five years and have been relying on an inhaler and Montair LC tablets. I'm starting to worry about how long Ill need to stay on this medication. Could you help me understand if there are long-term effects I should be concerned about, or if there are any other treatments I might explore?

It sounds like you've been managing a chronic respiratory issue for the past five years, using an inhaler and Montair LC tablets to help with symptoms. It's important to continue following your prescribed treatment plan, but if you're noticing any changes or worsening of symptoms, it may be worth discussing with your doctor to adjust your management strategy.

View allI've been dealing with a cough for 1214 days, and it's probably due to my dust allergy. I visited a doctor last week, and he prescribed Macpod 200, Montek LC, and Rapitus plus syrup. But over the last couple of days, I've developed a fever and I'm feeling really weak. What should I do? Is this something to be worried about?

I've been dealing with ongoing health issues, starting with demotomiyositis back in 2005 which required steroids like dexcona. These treatments led to complications, including a lung infection, for which I had to undergo several DOTS courses in 2012, 2014, and an 18-month course that wrapped up in April 2017. Recently, I unexpectedly began coughing up blood right around Diwali and had to be hospitalized twice in just one month. This happened again quite recently with more blood from the mouth. I'm really worried about what's going on and wondering if this bleeding might be something I shouldn't worry about. What kind of treatment should I be looking at for this? Are the medications I'm getting in Kota sufficient, or should I be considering a specialist in AIIMS for a more thorough evaluation?
The presence of blood from the mouth is not normal and should be taken seriously, as it could indicate a serious underlying condition. Immediate medical evaluation is necessary to determine the cause and appropriate treatment. It is advisable to seek a second opinion at a specialized hospital like AIIMS for a comprehensive assessment, especially if the current treatment in Kota isn't providing adequate relief.

I'm dealing with some breathing issues over the last couple of months. I've tried ECG and echo tests, and I've been taking gastritis tablets every day. My oxygen levels seem fine, like 99 on the oximeter, but the doctors keep saying it's nothing. But I constantly feel like I'm struggling to breathe, like air isn't coming in right through my nose, and there's this pressure in my chest making it hard to breathe properly. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
