So I've been able to exercise for quite a while without issues, and my peak flow readings are always solid, like around 550-600, and I'm 17 and about 174 cm tall. But lately, I've got this minor cold, and I've noticed something weird. When I breathe normally, I don't hear anything strange, but when I try to exhale really fast and hard, there's this wheezing sound. Is that normal? Could it just be anxiety causing this wheeze? Just trying to get some clarity on what's happening.

I'm really worried about my chest X-ray results from a private lab. It showed some tiny calcifications, and they mentioned it's from an old condition. I'm afraid this might cause issues with my medicals, as I plan to go abroad soon. Is there any way to deal with this or get it removed? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm an asthmatic and usually use Foracort 200 rotacaps during my asthma attacks. But every time after I use it, I feel really weak, like I can't even hold a glass, and I get super sleepy for almost 12 hours. It's quite concerning and I can't figure out why this is happening. Can you help me understand?
