I've had this persistent cough for a few weeks now and my GP sent me for a chest x-ray. It's been over two weeks since the x-ray on Tuesday, but I haven't heard any results yet. I'm really anxious and wondering if this delay is normal. Should I be worried about this?

I'm dealing with asthma and I've been taking moticope tablets for around six years now, every other day. I think I'm getting addicted because if I miss a dose, I can't sleep at all that night, which is starting to scare me. I really don't want any long-term side effects from this. Is there any way I can break this habit? Are there any alternatives that won't cause side effects? Also, for the past year, I've been feeling a mild burning sensation when I pee. A urologist said everything looks normal, but I'm worried if it could be from the moticope tablets. Can you give me some advice?

I'm just wondering if the Budamate 200 mcg inhaler could be harmful because I know it's a steroid. Is it as risky as other steroids? I'm also concerned about whether using it could lead to something like black fungus. I used it for about five days when I was recovering from COVID. Can you help me understand the possible side effects?

Seroflo rotahaler sos for breathing difficulty is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with a persistent cough for about six months now. Initially, it was just a cough, but recently I've noticed some blood when I cough, though it's only happened once or twice. I went to NIMS and they did an X-ray and endoscopy, but didn't find anything and they prescribed me Reswas and Trenxa syrup. Unfortunately, the cough hasn't improved and it tends to get worse at night. I'm feeling okay otherwise, but this nighttime cough is really starting to bother me. Could you suggest where I should go next or what kind of specialist I should consult?
