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'm really worried about my dad's asthma. He's been using Serollo 250 for the past 5 years because his asthma specialist recommended it. However, lately, every time we get a new one, it seems defective and isn't helping much. His asthma symptoms are actually getting worse, and Im really concerned. Is there an alternative to Serollo 250 that we might be able to find at local stores? I've attached a pic of the product if that helps.

I'm pretty worried and wondering what could possibly be going on here. Could this all be related somehow? What should we do?

When might I start gaining weight again during my TB treatment? I've lost about 15 kg since starting the medication and it's been almost 29 days now. I'm really worried. Will I be able to gain the weight back or is this going to be a permanent thing?
