View allI'm having a tough time with my breathing; it's been going on for about a year now. I'm pretty sure it's not asthma, but the symptoms feel like itchest congestion and this incomplete feeling when I breathe. I also deal with constant allergies, like my nose is always running and I sneeze a lot. My family doctor recommended Moncel LC and mentioned something about a smaller rotahaler. Does this sound right, or should I try something else?
Continue tab montek LC ,orally for 14 days and seroflo rotahaler 2 puffs sos for breathing difficulty.

My wife has been dealing with asthma for the past six months, and we're really worried about whether she can completely recover from it. Is there a chance that asthma can be fully eliminated from her body?
Asthma is a chronic condition that can be managed but not completely cured. With proper treatment and management, your wife can control her symptoms and lead a normal life. Medications such as inhalers like Ventolin (albuterol) for acute attacks and maintenance inhalers like Flovent (fluticasone) can help control asthma symptoms. It is important for her to follow her doctor's advice, avoid triggers, and lead a healthy lifestyle to manage her asthma effectively.
