What should I do if a CT scan shows multiple soft tissue nodules in the lung that are too small for a biopsy, and EBUS isn't an option? Any advice?

I've been feeling a bit of breath shortness after breakfast and while climbing stairs, and my breathing isn't as smooth as it used to be. I had a history of smoking for 9 years, then switched to vaping e-cigarettes for 2 years. I've quit all nicotine and smoking products for the past two weeks. Could you tell me what tests I should consider to understand the impact of my past smoking and vaping on my health?

I'm worried about my snoring. Could it be an early sign of something like heart issues or cardiovascular problems? I've also heard it might be related to things like hypertension, diabetes, or even obesity. Can you help me understand if there's a connection and whether I should be concerned about my health?

Yes, snoring can be associated with an increased risk of developing certain health conditions. It can be a sign of obstructive sleep apnea, which is a sleep disorder that can lead to cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes, and obesity. To address snoring and its potential health implications, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider. Treatment options may include lifestyle changes, such as weight loss and avoiding alcohol before bedtime, as well as the use of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine during sleep.

I'm a 53-year-old male and have been dealing with allergic asthma for quite some time now. I've been relying on Montac LC, which works well for me, but it's become quite expensive, nearly twice the price over the past year. Plus, nasal sprays and inhalers don't seem to help much, especially with the constant skin itching and sneezing. Is there an alternative tablet or medicine you could suggest?
