Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I've been prescribed a bunch of medications including Methylprednisolone, Montelukast, Fexofenadine, Acebrophylline, Levofloxacin, a nasal spray with Fluticasone and Azelastine, plus a nebulizer with Duolin and Budecort. My FEV1 is at 42, so I get that it's serious, but this seems like a lot to take in all at once. Is this really normal, or should I be concerned about how heavy this treatment plan feels for me?

no ,it is normal, your body requires this medicine

I'm experiencing chest pain and discomfort for the past two days, along with pain in my throat and neck that's getting worse. The pain is all around my rib cage and near my clavicle, and it feels like something is pressing on my chest. I've also had a cough that was quite bad yesterday, but it's a bit better today. The cough is dry, but in the mornings I'm coughing up white sputum and have been for quite a while. I haven't had a fever or lost my appetite. Could this be TB or something else?

do chest x ray and CBNAAT
