My 80-year-old father has recurrent episodes of rapid breathing and restlessness, mainly in the evening after lunch and afternoon sleep. He was hospitalized previously with severe breathlessness, diagnosed with acute LVF, and underwent coronary angiography. No angioplasty or repeat bypass was advised. He had bypass surgery 20 years ago. His oxygen saturation remained 98–99% during hospitalization. He also has chronic acidity, constipation, and a history of gastritis. Dytor 10 mg, previously prescribed SOS, was restarted recently as symptoms returned. Could these episodes be cardiac, pulmonary, or gastrointestinal in origin? Why does he remain relatively normal during the first half of the day? What further tests, treatment, or medication adjustments are recommended?
Dear Dr.,
Kindly go through the attached files, which contain a summary of my father’s current health issues and relevant medical details.
Dear Doctor,
I need advice for a chronic breathing issue ongoing for 2-3 years.
Every morning, I experience heavy pain, severe difficulty breathing, heavy chest congestion, and a blocked nose. I pass slippery, transparent-to-whitish, sometimes stringy mucus that feels impossible to clear completely. This used to last 1-2 hours, but over the past few days, it has worsened and now lasts 3-4 hours before returning to normal for the rest of the day.
I also have long-standing sneezing fits (at least 3 sneezes in a row), triggered by dust/blankets and occasionally occurring randomly. I do not have sinus pain or headaches.
I live in a high-pollution, heavy-traffic area and tend to feel cold easily, preferring to keep my torso covered.
Could this be allergic asthma, severe allergic rhinitis, or pollution-related airway inflammation? Please advise on diagnostic tests, appropriate prescription treatments, and management strategies.
Respected Doctors,
Can we use duolin along with Foracort 400 for rescue ie SOS. Are there any side effects.Regards
