Budamate 200 inhaler used for five days

I was COVID +ve in April and I was in home isolation with normal spo2.I was not prescribed any kind of steroid only took multivitamins+Azithral(5days) as prescribed by my physician.I recovered around 20 April but I had some breathing problem as I was feeling my breathing was not fulfilling.So then I consulted a pulmonologist on 8th May (approx 1 month after my first COVID symptom) for this problem he prescribed me Budamate 200mcg inhaler 2 puffs day and night.I did this medicine for 5 days and my breathing issue resolved and I stopped taking it. My concern is that as budamate contains Budesonide which is a steroid can it cause any side effects such as black fungus ? It's been 15 days since I stopped the inhaler.I am not diabetic or obese.

Side chest pain

Hi I have persistent chest pain since last June when I had covid. Post that I was given Asthma medicine( fumarate and budesonide) and acidity in Sep which helped in relieving SOB episodes but didn't go completely. Now earlier in Feb I did a PFT test and it came out normal. After further consultation, I was advised anxiety medicine which helped me with SOB issue(although again not completely gone). All the while there has been persistent chest pain or flare on the side and middle rib are and mostly on the right side of the chest( and sometimes on the left and both as well). Please advise. Note:- Currently on anxiety disorder and adhd medicine. Sorry for the long post. Cheers.

Usage of steroids in cold treatment

In my house there are 3 babies(7months, 10 months and 3 years) all of them got the cold. In the past also babies (10m and 3y) were caught colds and were then taken to local childrens specialist. I was not aware that he had given formoterol fumarate and budesonide respirator suspension in previous visits. He had prescribed that again this time. It was not a severe cold.They were not having any sort of breathing difficulties. It has come to my attention that he used that every time they had gone with a complaint of cold. I want to understand if it is safe and needed every time. I also need to mention they(10m,3y) had a cold at least once a month in the past 3 months. He also prescribed the cold medication which was banned last month during this visit(Monday).

High prolactin and tsh

One month back, my TSH level was very low, that is 0.02, with normal t4 level. After one month when I got my blood work, the tsh is found to be 93 and prolactin is 45. Symptoms wise I am having daily headaches, tiredness, feeling nauseous after eating little food also. My vitamin D levels are normal. I am currently not taking any medication, except budesonide 200mcg inhaler twice daily. These recent tests I got them done early morning empty stomach and on the third day of my period. What can be the reason for such drastic hormonal level changes. Similar tsh level fluctuations happened one year back, with tsh level 0.01 followed by 8 and then it came back to normal. Right now it is 93. What steps should I take for this???

TSh level deviations

In april 2022, because of delayed menstruation, I got my thyroid profile and TSH was 0.02. My TSH antibody test and free t4 done was normal. My thyroid 99mtc scan showed reduced tracer uptake by thyroid gland. It showed 0.2%. Then after 2 months, in june 2022 , I got my TSH checked and it was 7.06. I am concerned for such a huge change in TSH level from 0.02-7.06. I have got weight gain, slightly upset stomach, hair fall, slightly disturbed menstrual cycle. I take 400 mcg of budesonide inhaler daily for asthma. What steps should I take, to bring normal range of hormone?
