I've been taking the pill Septilin once a day for the past year since I got diagnosed with a respiratory allergy. I usually experience coughing, chest pressure, and a whistling sound when breathing at night. I'm also on an anxiety pill, Vetodep 20, once a day. Can I get the COVID-19 vaccine, and if so, what precautions should I be aware of?

I'm really struggling with chest pressure and tightness and it's been hard to breathe. I've stopped vaping for 3 days now, but the symptoms haven't improved. I don't have a fever, cold, or cough, but I'm feeling really anxious, almost like I have corona. I'm wondering if this could be due to poor eating habits or constipation? What can I do to feel better?

Yes, chest pressure and tightness along with severe shortness of breath can be related to poor eating habits and constipation. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking over-the-counter laxatives such as Dulcolax or Miralax to relieve constipation. It is also important to drink plenty of water, eat a high-fiber diet, and engage in regular physical activity to improve digestion. You can try using an inhaler such as Ventolin to help open up your airways. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Tums or Maalox to relieve any acid reflux that may be contributing to your symptoms. It is also important to avoid vaping and seek medical attention if your symptoms worsen or if you develop any new symptoms.
