HCQ is not recommended , so you can stop taking that. Continue rest all medications. Have ORS after loose stools.
Regarding breathlessness you can use budecort 200 inhaler 4 puffs, twice a day. Also do proning whenever possible.
You should watch SpO2 levels and should visit hospital if it's going below current levels.
