My wife is in her last week of the second trimester and she's been really under the weather with a bad cold and fever over the past couple of days. Initially, she was taking Calpol 650mg twice a day, Augmentin 625 three times a day, Asthakind DX syrup three times a day, and Teczine once a day. Thankfully, the fever's gone now, but the cold has gotten worse, and our physician thinks it might be pneumonia, so he sent us to a pulmonologist. Today, the pulmonologist prescribed Mox 500mg twice a day, Allegra M once a day, Calpol 500mg twice a day, and AB Phylline capsules twice a day. I'm really concerned and wondering if it's safe for her to take AB Phylline and Allegra M during pregnancy. Could you shed some light on this for us?

Im a 41-year-old guy and lately, I've been really struggling with breathing. It doesn't matter if I'm just sitting, standing, talking, walking, or pretty much doing anything - it's like I'm always short of breath. A month ago, I had some pain on the left side of my chest and ended up doing a bunch of tests like ECG, Stress Echo, and a chest X-ray, but everything came back normal. I'm really puzzled and kind of worried. Why do you think I might be feeling this way?

Every time I breathe in, I feel this pinching pain in my lung area, and it's bothering me in both my chest and back. I've tried stretching and moving around, but it just doesn't seem to help. Could you give me some insight into what's going on?
