Question

I'm a bit worried about my mom. The doctor gave her Montair LC 001 and Pan D100 for her mild dry cough she mainly gets when she's talking. It's been going on for like 1620 days, but she doesn't have any other cold symptoms, and there are no signs of asthma or acidity issues. I'm concerned that after 15 days of taking these meds, could she be at risk of an asthma attack or acidity problems in the future? I'm also wondering if instead of these medications, would using Strepsils lozenges and the Piriton CS cough suppressant give her some relief? What would you suggest?

Question

I'm a 55-year-old woman and my SPO2 level is usually above 95, but I've been having these on-and-off episodes of breathlessness. It's a bit unsettling. I even got a chest X-ray, and it came back normal. Should I be concerned about this?

Question

Im 5 months pregnant and I have scoliosis, which has damaged one of my lungs due to my spine's curvature. I had TB back in 2015 and started experiencing some coughing with mucus in December. After initial treatment, it didnt improve but got better on its own from January to February. Then in March, I had issues with mucus and breathing. My pulmonologist put me on Augment 625 in March, but it didnt help. After that, he prescribed a nebulizer with Duolin and Budesonide for 20 days, and that gave me a bit of relief. Recently, he prescribed Flutrol 400 inhaler and nebulizer urgently, but I'm coughing all the time now. Ive been told it might be COPD and old Kochs disease. Ive never smoked, so Im confused and a bit worried about being diagnosed with COPD. Can someone really have COPD without ever smoking? What could be causing my constant coughing?
