I'm a bit concerned and curious about something. After having COVID a month ago, all my symptoms have gone away, and my SpO2 levels have been normal for a while. My chest X-ray came back normal too, which is reassuring, but I'm wondering if its still possible for there to be any fibrosis that wouldnt show up yet? Or does a normal X-ray mean everything's clear? Im just trying to understand what a normal X-ray really tells me at this point. I'm 34 and havent had any other symptoms.

I've been dealing with asthma for quite a while now, and it's been pretty rough. Right now, I'm using the Seroflo 250 inhaler once a day and Duolin when I really need it. I also had sinus surgery a couple of years ago, but it kind of feels like my lungs are still really weak. I'm dealing with cold and cough pretty much all the time, and if I don't take Montair LC every day, things get worse. I'm a 30-year-old guy, around 75 kg. I'm trying to avoid steroids, but I'm not sure what else I can do. Any advice on treatments or ways to manage this better?

patient is advised to Continue inhalers sos and montair lc for breathlessness.

I'm really concerned about my husband. He had COVID back in September 2021, and ever since we're worried about his lungs. He's been taking medication for pulmonary lung fibrosis for the last four months. I'm attaching his recent CT scan of his lungs. Can you tell if there's been any improvement? And how much longer might it take for him to fully recover?

I'm in the military and ended up in Germany about a year and a half ago. Running's always been my thing and I've never had issues with it before. But then last August, out of nowhere, I started feeling this sharp chest pain when I was out on a run. At first, it didn't show up until around three miles in, but now I can't even manage a mile without feeling it. I got an inhaler and it worked at the beginning, but now it seems useless. I'm just 22, and I'm not sure what's going on. Any ideas on what this could be or what I should do next?

increase the dose of inhaler and increasethe frequency of using it
