I've just got my lung x-ray results back and it mentioned mild patchy consolidations in my bilateral lung fields. This definitely sounds concerning, doesn't it? I'm really curious to know what it all means. Do these findings indicate something serious? Should I be worried about this and what steps should I take next? Looking forward to your guidance.

View allI'm a bit worried and have some questions about my situation. I've been an asthmatic for quite some time now, and I was addicted to alcohol for 15 years. I stopped drinking completely in 2016 and started smoking weed instead. It's been two years since then, and I've realized that I haven't needed my inhaler, Foracart, for the past six months. I feel like weed might have helped with my asthma, but now I'm keen on quitting smoking weed as well. I'm curious to know if there are medicines available that contain weed or if there are alternative ways to consume weed in a medicinal form. Any advice would be appreciated.

I've been dealing with this stubborn cough for about 6 months now, and I've noticed that I also get these sharp pains in my ribs and chest sometimes, as well as my back. Lately, every time I take a deep breath, I end up coughing and wheezing, which is really concerning me. Plus, Ive been getting headaches and feeling super tired all the time, no matter how much sleep I get. My other bones are starting to feel weak and ache a lot too. Do you think I should see a doctor for these symptoms? What could be causing all of this?
