I'm really worried about my boyfriendhe's been experiencing shortness of breath almost every day, and now his sleep is getting disrupted by this choking cough and cold. He even catches a cold easily in the summer. It's been really rough for the past 23 days, and on top of that, he has indigestion. What can I do to help him or any advice on how we should handle this situation?

I'm having trouble with breathing and a persistent cough, and it sometimes feels like my throat is tight. My doctor checked my chest X-ray and said everything looks fine. I've been taking Montemac FX and Spirodin 650 regularly. Can you help me figure out what might be going on or what else I could do?

I'm a little confused about the results from my x-ray and ALV. They mentioned something about discrete and linear infiltrates in my left upper lobe, and said my right upper lobe is clear. They also noted it might be a chronic inflammatory lung issue like ptb fibroid type. Can you help me understand what this means? I'm a bit worried about what it indicates for my lung health.
