Health Q&A
Breathing problem
I'm diabetic (h1bac 7.4) and taking treatment. At time once in while I used to have breathing problem and got tested with treadmill and other tests and all come normal. I take Esiflow 250 inhaler 2-3 puffs and it becomes normal. From recent time I'm having this frequently specially when I wake up in the morning and/or in the evening time. Esiflow 250 still works but now it's frequent almost once in two days. Day time no issues only majority morning time and in the evening. Please suggest what should I do. Thanks

Shortness of breath after B12 Injection
My B12 was 118 pg/mL. I received Casinerve Plus (methylcobalamin 1500 mcg IM) in my buttock on Friday evening. From Saturday afternoon, I developed intermittent shortness of breath/air hunger. Last night it became quite severe with chest heaviness. Sometimes when I take repeated deep breaths, I feel dizzy. My SpO₂ and pulse have been normal, and BP has generally been normal, sometimes slightly low. I want to know whether this could be a reaction to the B12 injection or another cause, and whether I should avoid another injection and consider oral B12 or another formulation.
