I'm having some trouble with shortness of breath and a watery mouth for the past three days. I've tried taking cetirizine and sinarest, but they don't seem to be helping. Any ideas on what might be going on or what I should do next?

I'm experiencing shortness of breath and chest tightness. I was previously diagnosed with pneumonia and took medication for it. I recently had a CT scan done and it showed fibrotic strands. Should I be worried about these findings? What does it mean for my recovery and overall lung health? It's making me quite anxious, and I really need some guidance on what steps to take next.

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I've just had a spirometry test done, and the results are a bit confusing because there's no interpretation provided in the report. Plus, the reference ranges are different from what I've seen in my previous reports. I'm a bit worried and wondering if my results are normal. Could this mean I have asthma or some kind of obstruction?

I'm really worried because my parents and I have been dealing with COVID for two weeks now, and we're still coughing a lot. We've been taking ascoril ls, doxt t, and montaire LC, but it doesn't seem to help much. I've heard about getting an HR Chest CT Scan, and I'm wondering if I can get a doctor to prescribe it. Is it something we should consider?

you should consult a pulmonologist or physician and get a prescription for hrct
