Health Q&A
Air hunger, breathlessness, cough
I'm 37y old woman. since last dec I have had intermittent cough, and over the last few weeks have developed episodes of air hunger/unsatisfied deep breath, chest heaviness/tightness (especially over the sternum), and occasional breathlessness while talking or after exertion. I also have a persistent upper back ache between the shoulder blades that often precedes the air-hunger sensation. Symptoms are triggered by dust, incense smoke, cold/chilly air and temperature changes. Warm humid air feels more comfortable. I occasionally notice wheeze on forced exhalation. Cough is mostly dry with very little sputum; once or twice I coughed up a tiny amount of thick light-yellow mucus. I also have hoarseness, reduced singing ability and reflux/acidity symptoms sometimes. CBC and IgE are normal; Vitamin D is low. ENT suspected allergic bronchitis/CVA and started Foracort Rotahaler, with partial improvement in cough and some episodes of chest tightness... what could it be?
Should I try or not?
I had TB in my lung and had a scar/mark and I got to know that I also has ABPA Apergillus allergy, I sometime feel breathing problem, I also had covid positive Didn't had steroid for covid but positive and bit breathing problem. My psychiatrist said I have adhd and tried all medicines ,not only is the medicine remaining is Guanfacine er/ Clonidine ER I am worrying Because I have read on the internet that these two medicines can cause upper respiratory Infection Should I take this Medicine or not?as I already have lung conditions Looking for advice as many as possible
