I was just diagnosed with asthma, and I'm a bit worried. Is this something that could be temporary? I'm the only one in my family with it, and I never smoke. I used to do a lot of exercise outside in the cold mornings before, could that be why I'm experiencing this?

I've been having this weird issue where I feel a cough coming on whenever I take a deep breath. It also tends to act up more when I'm really stressed out. And there's this annoying sensation like something is stuck in my throat. Do you think this is something serious? What could be causing it?

I'm feeling a bit anxious because I've been having shortness of breath ever since I got my first dose of Covaxin. I did see a doctor, and they suggested I take Broclear and get an X-ray. I got the X-ray results back, and they were mostly normal except for this note about increased bronchovascular markings in both lung fields. Should I be worried about this? What does it mean, and what steps should I take next?

pulmonary function test, blood test

I've been noticing blood when I sneeze for a while now, and it's showing up in my sputum too. It started back in March 2016, and although I tested negative for TB, a doctor recommended a budamate inhaler and TelecastL, which helped stop the bleeding. I stopped the medication after a couple of months without consulting the doctor, and now the bleeding is back. The doctor suggested a bronchoscopy, but there aren't any available beds at the hospital, and now the doctor is on leave. I already had a CT scan done on my chest, but I'm really concerned about what might be causing this hemoptysis and what steps I should take next. Could you give me some guidance?

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.
