I'm really worried about my sister. She's been dealing with whooping cough and a bit of trouble breathing. We first saw a pulmonologist who said it might be because of her high white blood cell count, which is at 17,000. He gave her Hetrazan 100 and Cefpo 200 a week ago, but she's still coughing a lot. Today, we went to see a more senior pulmonologist and he thinks it might actually be asthma. He prescribed things like duolin rotacaps, seroflo rotacaps 250, levosalbutamol, ipratropium bromide, and mebendazole. I'm just confusedis this because of the high white blood cell count or is it asthma?

View allI'm really worried because I've had a severe cough for the last five days. I'm taking Micef 200, Dolo 650, Dexona, Monticope, and MagnatussA syrup for it. In the mornings, I really have to cough hard to get any phlegm out, and it comes out red at first, then turns light green. Is that normal or something I should be more concerned about? Also, I'm experiencing a lot of headaches and body pain because of the coughing. What should I do?
as there is no relief get a throat swab done and visit Physician for appropriate management

I'm really concerned about my mom's situation. She's 55 and had fluid buildup in one of her lungs. She's done with the treatment for that, but she's still taking medicine for TB. I have the fluid report attached, and I saw the term "malignant tumor" mentioned in relation to increased serum levels. Should I be worried about that? Is there something seriously wrong that we should know about?
Continue ATT as advised by the pulmonologist.

I'm dealing with a viral flu and it's been about two days now. I visited my doctor today, and he mentioned I've got a bit of wheezing on top of everything. He suggested I take Pulmoclear tablets twice daily, once in the morning and once at night, for a week, alongside the antibiotics I'm already on. I've never taken Pulmoclear before and it's my first time experiencing wheezing. Is this medication safe for me? I'm pretty anxious about trying something new and don't know how my body will react or if it's going to work well for me. Could you give me some advice?
