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'm feeling really suffocated and it's pretty uncomfortable when I breathe. It seems to take quite a bit of effort. I'm also dealing with anxiety and have had anxiety attacks quite a few times. Could these breathing issues be related to my anxiety, or do you think it might be something else? What should I do next?

try doing yoga and exercises.

I'm really worried about my aunt. She's dealing with COVID and her lungs are infected. Right now, she's on a ventilator in a private hospital. She doesn't have any other health issues like diabetes or high blood pressure; she just has thyroid problems. I have her HRCT scan report here too. The doctors mentioned she'll be on the ventilator for about 5 days. Can you tell me if she's going to be okay? How serious is her condition? Is this something she can recover from?

curable
