I'm 28 and have been using Budamate 200 respules for about four months now. I haven't had any attacks during this time and stopped taking it a week ago without any problems. I'm just curious about whether I should stop taking it entirely or if I should continue. If I should keep taking it, how much longer should I be on this medication?

I'm looking at my X-ray report, and I'm pretty concerned. It mentions that the right hilar vascular marking is prominent, and for the cardiac area, it's not clear if it's normal or not. Plus, the CP angles are hazy. I'm really wondering if these findings are normal or if there's something I should be worried about health-wise. Could you help me understand what's going on?
