I've just got my health check-up done, and while most things are in the normal range, my eosinophils count is a bit high at 11.6. I've started taking banocide tablets for the past couple of days. Lately, I've begun feeling a little uneasy when I breathe. I did an ECG and chest X-ray, and those came back normal. Do you think the banocide will help with the breathing issue, or should I be looking into other medication?

I'm really worried about my brother. His oxygen levels are around 90, and he's got a cough in his lungs, but all his tests for COVID, typhoid, and malaria came back negative. He's been admitted to the hospital and is on oxygen, but his levels aren't improving. What should we consider doing next?

Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm a bit worried about some health stuff and hoping you can give me a bit of clarity. I saw a pulmonologist, and they did an X-ray. The ECG was normal, but it showed pulmonary ventricular contractions. My oximeter reading was 99 for oxygen and 123 for heart rate. The doctor said I dont have any breathing problems, but I am feeling short of breath and a tight chest. Could I have COPD? What kind of oximeter reading should a COPD patient have, or when should I be concerned about my breathing? I dont have any allergies, cough, or cold. Would really appreciate some guidance here.

take pantop 40mg for 3 days

I'm getting really worried because it's been a month since I caught COVID-19. I was admitted to the hospital on April 23 and discharged on April 28. Lately, I've noticed that about ten days after coming home, I started experiencing sudden drops in my oxygen levels and breathlessness, but only while I'm sleeping. During the day, my oxygen levels are between 95 and 98, which seems normal, but at night they can drop to 80 or even lower. This happens even when I sleep in a prone position. Is this something like Happy Hypoxia? I really need some guidance and help with this.

it is hypoxia ,kindly do chest xray
