I've had a persistent cough for over two months now. It all began with painful swelling on the backs of my hands. I had a high fever that went away after taking medicine for five days, but the cough stuck around. Now I'm experiencing chest pain and shortness of breath with even a little activity, and the pain has moved to a sharp lung pain below my chest. I saw a pulmonologist, and my CT scan was normal, although my WBC count was a bit high. Today I went to a gynecologist because of lower abdomen pain and found out I have a left ovarian cyst. What could be going on? I'm really worried about how all these symptoms tie together. Is it something serious?

Our patient was told to take chymoral forte three times a day after her ovarian removal surgery. Now she's feeling really nauseous and dizzy when she tries to get out of bed. Do you think it's okay if we stop the medication for a day to see if these are side effects?

Chymoral is not that essential drug so yes u can stop it for a day. Majority of the drugs have nausea vomiting as their side effects which manifest in different people variably.
