I'm working a night shift from 3:00 PM to 12:00 AM, and I've been having this issue where my breathing stops while I'm asleep. When I wake up in the morning, I end up vomiting, and there's also this white spit. It's honestly quite worrying, and I could really use some advice on what's going on here. Any insights would be appreciated.

I've been diagnosed with bronchitis after checking my x-ray, and I've taken a lot of antibiotics, but now I'm having pain on the lower right side of my chest. The weird thing is I don't have any cough at all. I've just started taking Prentiss 800. What should I do next? Any advice would really help.

it's gastritis because antibiotics will cause gastritis sometimes

I'm really worried about my friend who's been dealing with cough syncope. Initially, he was told to take Sercef CV 500 with Cefuroxime and Clavulanic Acid for six days, but that didn't help. Then a pulmonologist switched him to Azee 500 Azithromycin and Allegra 120, and it's been three days on those meds without any change. His chest X-ray and blood work are all okay, which is kind of confusing. He's been coughing for about 20 days now, and it's scary because he fainted three times today and hurt himself. An ENT he saw in the beginning gave him steroids but that also didnt work. We're really concerned, and Im just wondering what other options there might be to help him out?

It sounds like your friend is experiencing a persistent cough despite trying different medications. Since the chest x-ray and haemogram reports are normal, it's important to consider other possible causes for the cough. In this case, I would recommend consulting with a pulmonologist or a respiratory specialist for further evaluation. Your friend may benefit from a different approach to treatment, such as trying a different class of antibiotics or considering other underlying conditions that could be contributing to the cough. Additionally, it's important to monitor for any concerning symptoms such as fainting episodes and seek medical attention promptly if they persist. In the meantime, your friend can continue taking the prescribed medications as directed and ensure proper rest and hydration.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 73 and just got over COVID about nine days ago. For the first five days, his oxygen levels were stable at 95, but then his blood sugar went up, and the doctors said it's from the steroids, even though he's not diabetic. He was treated for around four days, and now the sugar and blood pressure are under control. But his oxygen levels are fluctuating between 86 to 93. Should I be thinking about taking him back to the hospital, or is there something else I could do at home?

put oxygen on
