I'm a bit worried about my breathing issues. The doctor prescribed me Predmet 4mg tablets for 15 days, and it really helped control it. But now that I've finished the course, the breathing problem has come back. How long can I safely continue taking this medicine if it helps with my breathing? Could you please advise?

I'm really worried about my aunt, she's 43 and has diabetes. Last night she was having trouble breathing, and doctors say she's got viral pneumonia. They mentioned one part of her lung is turning white. Is this something we should be really worried about?

My dad was diagnosed with sarcoidosis after a prostate biopsy, and he had a high ACE level. He's been on 32 mg of prednisolone for about two months now, but we haven't noticed any improvement. He's also taking clarithromycine, forcan, and augmentin because of high neutrophil counts. Im really concerned and just wondering, does it sound like hes on the right treatment plan? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She's 69 and her oxygen levels are between 92 and 94. She had some mild chest congestion before, and the doctor gave her Azee 500 to take for five days. Is her low oxygen something we should be worried about?

no, it might due to positional variation
