Ive been feeling really suffocated for the past three days, and it's making it really tough to get any work done. My chest feels tight and heavy, and I've also got this nagging upset stomach. Its like Im completely unhappy and cant shake off these negative thoughts. Im wondering, is this a breathing problem or anxiety or something else entirely? I had a chest x-ray done about three months ago, and it didnt show anything, but the problems still here. The doctor mentioned something about allergic rhinitis, and Ive been taking Alerfix Total daily for three months and Oxitin CR Forte, but I missed my Oxitin dose the last two days. Could this be something serious? And how can I get rid of this permanently?

I'm really worried because the patient just got over COVID about five days ago. I'm trying to find out if they also recovered from COVID pneumonia or if there's still something lingering. Can you help explain how we can know for sure if they're in the clear?

for that you should do chest xray

I'm trying to make sense of a chest ultrasound report and figure out if a pleural effusion should be drained. Is there any way to tell how much fluid is too much, or any specific measurements I should be looking for? I'm really unsure about what indicates a need for drainage.

it should be done clinically
