Question

I'm having trouble sleeping because every time I'm about to fall into a deep sleep, I feel short of breath, almost like I'm having an attack, and it wakes me up suddenly. It's really interrupting my sleep and I'm starting to get worried. I'm not getting enough rest at night, and it's only made worse by a bit of nasal congestion. What could be going on?

Question

I'm really loving the benefits of Amla juice for my skin and hair, but I've been having some trouble breathing at night, which is affecting my sleep. I saw a local doctor who suggested taking Azithromycin 500mg at night and advised stopping all sour foods and Amla juice. Is there any way I can address the breathing issue without having to give up Amla juice? It's been really effective for me and I don't want to stop if possible.

Question

I'm wondering if it's safe for heart patients who don't have asthma but had bronchitis just once to use inhaled corticosteroids regularly. Could this be harmful over time? I've heard something about it possibly being connected to glaucoma, and it's got me a bit worried. What do you think?

Question

I'm experiencing something a bit odd. After 5 or 6 normal breaths, I feel the need to take a heavy breath, which is really uncomfortable. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
