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 really struggling with shortness of breath and it's been about a week. I saw my doctor and tried the medicine they recommended, but it didnt help much. I went back, and they switched my medication. It's a bit better now, but still not quite right. Years ago, another doctor suggested a different medicineI think it was Etiofylline theofylline, but I dont remember exactly. Do you think I can try taking that medication now?

yes you can take it , but this medicine should he taken with doctor's consultation.

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.

Continue all the medications.Also seroflo rotahaler sos is advised to the patient during breathing difficulty.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with breathing issues and pain in my left chest and shoulder for the past four years. I had a chest X-ray, and it came back normal. Why am I still experiencing these symptoms? Should I be concerned, or are there other tests I should consider to get to the bottom of this?
