I'm really worried about my husband. He's been waking up in the middle of the night sweating and struggling to breathe, and this has happened twice in just three days. We checked his blood pressure both times he woke up, and it was 148110 with a pulse of 75 the first time, and 140100 with a pulse of 85 the second time. He usually takes TeldayH every day for his high blood pressure, which generally keeps it under control. His blood sugar levels were also normal when we checked them yesterday, and his ECG was fine in January. He did have a gout attack around the same time, and his uric acid levels were 8.7 then, and he's also dealing with high cholesterol. Right now, he's on Febuxostat and Jupiros. I'm just trying to figure out why he's having these night sweats and breathing problems. Could it be related to his medication or something else?

I'm really worried because I've been experiencing shortness of breath almost every day for the past year. It's like I can't breathe deeply and feels like there's air trapped in my chest. It's happening even when I'm just resting with no apparent triggers. I also sometimes feel dizzy and have trouble focusing. I've noticed that this used to only happen occasionally, like during exercise or when the weather was bad, but now it's nearly constant. I'm currently taking verapamil three times a day to manage my tachycardia and hypertension. Could any of this be related, or what might be causing these feelings?

Seroflo inhaler sos is advised to the pt for wheezing.
