I'm curious about something. I've had asthma allergic rhinitis for the past two years, but before all that started, I was able to donate blood. Do you think it's still okay for me to give blood now?

I've been struggling with breathing issues for the past 45 days. It feels like the air isnt fully filling my chest, and I have to take deep breaths for 15 to 30 seconds for things to feel normal. I don't have a cold, cough, or fever, but today my throat is super dry and it feels like theres pressure inside. What could be going on? I'm really worried.

I've been taking antibiotics for a couple of weeks, and I noticed the lung nodule looks smaller in my recent CT scan from last month. Does this mean it's more likely to be benign rather than malignant? And should I continue with antibiotics to see if the nodule disappears completely? Any idea how long that might take?
