I am 36F and Consulted a doctor in early June for chest discomfort and nighttime coughing. All diagnostic tests were normal, and I received a provisional diagnosis of Cough Variant Asthma (CVA). Later in late June, contracted a viral infection that caused a deep chest rattle.
I Completed a 1-month course of Foracort 400 (twice daily) exactly 5 days ago (July 5).
The late-June viral chest rattle ('ghar-ghar') and active cough have now stopped.
• Current Symptoms: Voice is completely hoarse and cracked. Experiencing a mild, persistent 'sinking' feeling in my chest, especially when exhaling or leaning back on pillows. The chest feels generally uncomfortable and not fully right, though it is hard to explain in words.
Of late I am feeling a tiny bit breathless at times (might be due to heightened awareness/anxiety). No classic acidity, stomach discomfort, or hot belches, but the chest discomfort is noticeably more after heavy meals.
Can I take foracort agin or what should I do?

My father had pain in right leg and he was unable to move. We took him to doctor in hospital where the doctor asked to get him admitted as it can be a case stroke I don't know why
We got him admitted on 1st july they did an MRI and said it is normal
Now they said the oxygen level is dropping so they transferred him in MICU
Now on 7th july they told us to buy or rent an BIpap machine along with an oxygen cylinder and to hire a caretaker
Now i have some doubts
Whether they got him admitted because the patient is a retired pensioner and everything is covered under insurance
The hospital just started a caretaking service are they promoting it
And how do i make sure whether a bipap machine is necessary or not because he had no breathing issues before getting admitted
Please help me if anyone can
My child has an allergy. Only during sleep, my child develops breathing difficulty and shortness of breath, which disturbs sleep. We consulted an allergist last Saturday. The doctor prescribed Levolin (3 puffs at night) and Budecort (1 puff at night) for one month. After starting the inhalers, my child's breathing at night has improved, but there is still breathing difficulty during the afternoon nap. It has been 4 days since we started the treatment. Should we wait and continue the treatment for some more time, or should we take my child back to the doctor?"
Hello dr . l have had cough and breathlessness for 6–7 years. Asthma is not confirmed, and asthma treatment has not helped much. PFT showed FEV1 41% and FEV1/FVC 57% (poor-quality report). I also have palpitations, body-wide pulsations, fatigue, joint pain, muscle pain, eye pain reddness and elevated ESR/CRP. Which specialist should I consult first?
