I'm really concerned about this thing that's been happening to me at night. When I'm just about to fall asleep or sometimes even in the middle of the night, I'll wake up gasping for air. It's really frightening. I'm taking Olzole right now for my heartburn and gas, and I'm trying to figure out if what I'm experiencing might be sleep apnea or is it just because of my GERD acting up. It used to happen before but not as often as it does now. Could you help me understand what's going on?

View allMy husband has been dealing with sarcoidosis for about a year and a half now, and he was on methylpred for a year. He's asymptomatic at the moment, but I'm really curious about how we can tell if the disease is still present or if it's gone into remission. Can a chest X-ray reveal if the disease is still there, or would it show enlarged lymph nodes and other markers even when he's in remission? How can I tell if he's recovering early on?

I've been feeling a bit of breath shortness after breakfast and while climbing stairs, and my breathing isn't as smooth as it used to be. I had a history of smoking for 9 years, then switched to vaping e-cigarettes for 2 years. I've quit all nicotine and smoking products for the past two weeks. Could you tell me what tests I should consider to understand the impact of my past smoking and vaping on my health?

Hey, I've been smoking about 10-12 cigarettes a day and lately I'm noticing some worrying things. There's a persistent pain in my throat and sometimes in my chest too. I'm also dealing with a sore throat alongside a coughing issue that's not going away. Could you suggest what might be going on or what I should do about it?
To help with the pain in your throat and chest, as well as the sore throat and coughing, I recommend you try using lozenges containing benzocaine for throat pain relief. Additionally, you can use cough syrup containing dextromethorphan to help with the cough. It is important to reduce or quit smoking to improve your symptoms and overall health.
