I've been dealing with a persistent cough for the last two months, and its been pretty rough. Every time I spit out mucus, I get this weird dizziness. On top of that, I've been experiencing some chest pain. Its starting to worry me. Could this be whooping cough or something else? What should I do about it?

I'm noticing this unusual sound coming from my left lung when I breathe deeply, and it makes my left side vibrate. It goes away after I cough, but I'm still concerned. I've had three X-rays and those came back normal. I also did spirometry, and that was normal too. I'm a smoker, and my recent hemoglobin level was 17.90, RBS was 5.81, and PCV was 51.80. Is this something I should be worried about? Am I okay?

Raised hemoglobin in the reports. Physician opinion is advised to the patient.

My mom's CT value was 1325 even after getting 10 injections of Remdesivir and it's been 20 days now, but her CT value is still 1425. She's also having some trouble with her oxygen levels. I'm really worried about what this means for her condition and what steps we should take next. Could you help me understand what's going on?
