37F seeking a second pulmonology opinion. For 5-6 months I’ve had intermittent dry cough, air hunger, chest tightness/heaviness, mild breathlessness while talking, and upper back ache. Triggers include dust, incense smoke, and cold air; warm humid air helps. Occasional wheeze on forced exhalation. Slight nagging pain at back between the shoulder blades is also there. I also have hoarseness, voice fatigue, reduced singing ability, and a history of reflux. Pulmonologist suspects CVA...but is it possible to have asthma when all reports are normal? Including Ige?
Please suggest as though I'm on treatment, I'm clueless on what's wrong with me ...
Feno result is 17. Attaching pft report .
So at times I get breathlessness and my chest becomes tight and stomach feels like there is no air inside I had been to a doc they took the IOS test and said the lungs are fine and there is a small difference between before and after taking inhaler . I am also on anxiety medication and she has now recommended Cipla f inhaler a steroid version sometimes the inhaler helps but sometimes it doesn't and the anxiety medicine does not help in reducing the breathlessness . What could it be is it asthama or anxiety ? I have been to many doctors and now I am confused !
He has chronic hepatitis b which is inactive can he take liv52 from himalya? Along with tb medicine to support liver health
For the last 20 days I have had a breathing/inhaling discomfort where I feel unable to take a fully satisfying deep breath. It is worse in hot and humid weather and improves in AC. Symptoms are usually less in the morning and at night. This started after a few panic/anxiety episodes about a month ago, for which my doctor prescribed Nexito 10 and Zapiz 0.5. Even when I don't feel anxious, the breathing issue can still occur, although it makes me anxious when it happens. ECG was normal except sinus tachycardia. CBC, sodium, potassium and TSH were normal, CRP was 21 and ESR was 12. I also have mildly elevated liver enzymes. Two doctors examined my lungs and said they sound clear. Could this be anxiety-related or does it suggest a lung problem?
Hello Doctor,
My first problem started with chronic cough and breathing difficulty about 5 years ago. After that, I started getting headaches, joint pain, eye pain, chest pain & discomfort, and right side abdominal pain. I have taken treatment, but my symptoms are still continuing. Please advise what could be the cause and what tests or specialist consultation I may need.
