Chest & Breathing Problems
Regarding pulmonary fibrosis
My mother recently got covid 19 infection. There was acute respiratory distress and oxygen level was 85 @ 15 Liter oxygen. She was in ICU for 7 days on NIV. Viral pneumonia with CT score 13 out of 25 was there. CRP was 108 and Tocilizumab was given. Along with this steroids and remedisevir was also given with lot of other medicines. Now she has recovered and discharged from the hospital. Xray still showing the bilateral pulmonary fibrosis. Hence doctor prescribed Nintenanib. My mother has history of hypertension and heart rate usually remains 60-65. With antifibrotic Nintenanib it is increasing to 85. What should I do? Aspist covid complications could be there what precautions should we take to avoid that? Kindly help

Hemoptysis in Winter.. Living in Gulf.
Male, Age 28.. 105kg..living in middle east
It's been four years every winter I get cold, eventually cough and hemoptysis. From 2018 March!
CT was taken and it was normal. Cough and hemotpysis stopped within a month.
Again in 2019 winter.. 2020 winter..
2020 again been to pulmonologist Xray was taken.. was normal..
2021 winter also got the same (cough and hemoptysis).. been to general physician.. taken inhaler and stopped..
Now again in 2022 (present) after exposure to covid started cough and hemoptysis..
Last three years I coughed up blood only in the morning!
But this time i cough less... but when I do violent cough bloody phlegm comes out.. not only morming.. sometimes at night also(unlike last three years)..
I have discomfort in chest due to gerd (gas)..burp a lot..
The cough and hemoptysis lasts for two months then stops! After that I dont face any issues until next winter!
No fever.. no weight loss..
Seeing my history above.. chance of lung cancer?
What can it be? Again scans?

Chronic cough and breathlessness.
She is suffering from quick bouts of breathlessness with walking. Cough and chest congestion has aggravated over three years. We can also hear sounds from her chest when her breathing is forced. In a routine check up for watery eyes, eye specialist advised range of tests (attached) to rule out Sarcoidosis.
Chest x-ray, HRCT chest and Angiotensin converting enzyme and Extranuclear antibodies test show some aberrations. Is this a condition that needs immediate attention and medication?
