I've been dealing with asthma and currently, Im using inhaled corticosteroids for it. I dont have any other health issues going on, so I'm wondering if it's safe for me to get the Covishield vaccine. Is there anything I should be worried about with the combination of the vaccine and my asthma treatment?

I'm really worried about my sister's chest X-ray results. It mentioned everything was normal except it said the right hilar shadows are heavy and show nodularity, linked to lymphadenopathy. I'm pretty anxious and just need to know if this is something that only happens to people with HIV or could it be something else?

The finding of "right hilar shadows heavy with nodularity, suggestive of lymphadenopathy," is not specific to HIV infection. It can occur in various conditions, including infections, inflammatory diseases, or even cancers. Further investigation, such as clinical assessment and additional tests, is needed to determine the exact cause.

I'm finding it hard to breathe or feeling uneasy while breathing during the night, especially between 4 AM to 6 AM, and it's been going on for about four months. I also notice a wheezing sound when I breathe. What could be causing this, and how can I get some relief?
