I'm really worried about my mom who's been diagnosed with pneumonia at St. Luke's E.R. The doctor gave her medication for just 15 days, but she's still struggling with a cough that keeps her up all night and it's affecting her sleep. We're really concerned because she's not allowed to leave the house, and we want to find out if theres a different medication or treatment that might help her. Who can we reach out to for more advice? Would appreciate any guidance!

View allMy wife has been dealing with asthma for the past six months, and we're really worried about whether she can completely recover from it. Is there a chance that asthma can be fully eliminated from her body?
Asthma is a chronic condition that can be managed but not completely cured. With proper treatment and management, your wife can control her symptoms and lead a normal life. Medications such as inhalers like Ventolin (albuterol) for acute attacks and maintenance inhalers like Flovent (fluticasone) can help control asthma symptoms. It is important for her to follow her doctor's advice, avoid triggers, and lead a healthy lifestyle to manage her asthma effectively.

I'm dealing with allergic rhinitis and my doctor suggested I get a PFT to see if I have asthma. Lately, I've been having a cough or cold that lasts for about 25 days, even though I'm taking Ebast M almost every day. Is there anything I should do to prepare for the PFT? Should I stop taking Ebast M before the test or is it fine to continue with it?
do pft without taking ebast m

I've been dealing with a wet cough for about 10 days now and my doctor put me on antibiotics and this aerodil syrup along with Montek LC tablets. When I'm on the medicine, it seems to control the cough, wheezing, and that annoying whistling sound, but as soon as I stop, everything acts up again. I'm kinda stuck because, with this lockdown, I can't find a doctor to consult. Do you think I should start taking the aerodil syrup and Montek LC tablets again? The nights are the worst, I just can't seem to get any sleep. Would love some advice on what to do!
