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?

View allI'm taking Montek LC, usually half a tablet at night, but sometimes I get shortness of breath during the day. Is it okay to take another half tablet in the morning too if that happens?
Montek LC is typically taken once a day, and it's best to follow your doctor's instructions. If you're experiencing shortness of breath or choking during the day, it's important to consult your doctor to discuss adjusting the dosage or considering an alternative treatment.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with a cough, fever, and breathing problems for the past three months. I've been to the hospital and they said it's pneumonia, but even with the medication, I don't feel any better. Can you tell me what the best treatment would be?

Im 5 months pregnant and I have scoliosis, which has damaged one of my lungs due to my spine's curvature. I had TB back in 2015 and started experiencing some coughing with mucus in December. After initial treatment, it didnt improve but got better on its own from January to February. Then in March, I had issues with mucus and breathing. My pulmonologist put me on Augment 625 in March, but it didnt help. After that, he prescribed a nebulizer with Duolin and Budesonide for 20 days, and that gave me a bit of relief. Recently, he prescribed Flutrol 400 inhaler and nebulizer urgently, but I'm coughing all the time now. Ive been told it might be COPD and old Kochs disease. Ive never smoked, so Im confused and a bit worried about being diagnosed with COPD. Can someone really have COPD without ever smoking? What could be causing my constant coughing?
