I've been dealing with this really persistent cough for the past month, and it gets really bad at night. It's to the point where I have trouble breathing because of the cough. Ive had an X-ray and blood tests, but everything came back normal. Why does my breathing stop at night because of the cough? What's going on?

View allI'm getting this wheezing sound when I breathe in, and my pulmonologist had me do a PFT and FENO test. The FENO test results show 58, which is apparently severe, but I'm not an asthma patient. The PFT shows 72. Should I be worried about how serious this is? Do I need to take any specific precautions? I'm currently using Symbicort 320 twice a day.
if you are smoker then avoid it. continue the medication given

I recently got an HRCT scan of my chest, and the results showed minimal ground glass haziness in the posterior parts of both lungs, especially in the dependent zones. It also mentioned some small lymph nodes near the trachea and a few other places. I'm trying to understand what all this means. Should I be worried?
minimal haziness and small lymph nodes, especially if not associated with other symptoms, often do not indicate serious problems but should still be monitored. If you have any chronic symptoms (like a cough, difficulty breathing, fever, or weight loss), or if the doctor suggests any follow-up, its important to follow their advice closely.

I'm dealing with a bit of a dry cough for a while now, and it feels like it's from some throat irritation. It's been going on for about 50 days, and I'm also having slight trouble with my breathing. I went to see an ENT specialist, and he mentioned it's just acidity, but I haven't had any stomach burning at all. It feels more like something's really bothering my throat, and that's why the dry cough is there. What could be going on here? Can you help figure this out?
gastro esophageal reflux disease will cause the above symptoms mentioned by you. proceed to take tablet .pantoprazole for 5 days,once daily
