Question 1

I've been dealing with a cough for nearly two years, and about three months ago, my doctor sent me for Blood IgE, PFT, and FENO tests. Based on my IgE results, I finished a course of allergy tablets, and I was also prescribed Esiflo, which I'm supposed to take with Lupihaler. I initially felt dizzy on this medication, so I stopped after a couple of days, but I've restarted at a reduced dose. Should I keep taking Esiflo even though it makes me feel uncomfortable? And looking at my PFT and FENO reports, do they suggest if my lungs are in bad shape? I'm also experiencing some shortness of breath and chest heaviness lately. I can't reach my doctor right now, so I'd really appreciate some insight. Thank you.

Accepted Answer

Yes,continue same treatment as advised.

Question 2

I'm feeling really worried because I've had symptoms like a fever around 100F, a lot of coughing, and this weird pressure on the left side of my chest and back for the last four days. I've stayed at home, isolated myself, and took a COVID test, but I don't have the results yet. I also have asthma and allergies to dust and smoke. Could you please suggest what precautions to take and if there's any medication I should consider?

Question 3

I'm really worried because I had a Covid test on June 1st, and I've been having this dry cough ever since. It's been a few days now without a fever, but the cough just won't go away. I tried taking Macbery XT cough syrup, but it hasnt helped at all. Also, sometimes I feel like there's some congestion when I breathe. What should I do about this?

Accepted Answer

refer to cardiologist

I'm really worried about ILD and whether it's curable or not. I've read online that people with ILD only live for about 3 to 5 years. Is that true? Is there anything specific I can do to help manage this disease? Id really appreciate any advice or remedies you can suggest.
