I've been feeling really out of breath at night and I'm dealing with a chest infection and a constant cough. I'm wondering if taking the tablet Theoasthalin would help with my symptoms. Can you give me some advice on whether it's a good idea to try it?

I'm feeling a bit anxious because I've been having shortness of breath ever since I got my first dose of Covaxin. I did see a doctor, and they suggested I take Broclear and get an X-ray. I got the X-ray results back, and they were mostly normal except for this note about increased bronchovascular markings in both lung fields. Should I be worried about this? What does it mean, and what steps should I take next?

I'm dealing with some chest pain that's been bothering me since January. I've done an ECG, echo, TMT, chest X-ray, and sputum test, and everything came back normal. The pain has decreased a bit since then, but it's still there. Plus, every morning at around 5 am, phlegm comes up, and I notice a bit of a cough when I exercise. Also, my chest starts getting irritated when I sit in an A.C. environment. Could you suggest some precautions or any advice on what might help? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

I'm wondering if the muscles in my upper back are affecting my breathing. When I lean against the wall near my bed, I feel like I'm gasping for air, and my upper back muscles get really tight. I'm not sure what's going on. Can you shed some light on this? What should I do about it?
