I'm really worried because my oxygen level has been fluctuating between 88 and 90 for the past three days. I'm 52 years old and weigh 95 kg, and my blood test came back normal. However, my CRP level was 35 mgL on April 13 and then went down to 8.60 mgL by April 27. What should I do about this situation?

I've been dealing with this cough for about a week now. I saw a doctor nearby who recommended Gudcef CV 200, Ascoril LS Syrup, and Zincovut. I've been taking them for the last three days, but I'm still coughing. Could you guide me on what else I might do?

I'm 33 years old and really struggling with asthma and some gastro issues. Plus, I'm quite overweight at 91 kg, and I think dropping about 20 kg might help with the asthma. Do you have any advice or can you recommend any medicine or tablets that would be suitable for me?

I've just finished my TB treatment, but I'm really worried because now I'm noticing blood when I spit. Is this something that can happen after completing TB treatment? Should I be concerned about this?

It's important to take any instance of blood in the mouth seriously, even after completing TB treatment. It could be related to residual lung issues, irritation, or other causes such as a throat infection or bleeding gums. I recommend consulting with your doctor for a thorough evaluation and to rule out any complications or new conditions.
