What helps post COVID shortness of breath?

Hydrochlaquid: Spelling is iffy at best. I wonder if this drug would provide relief from post COVID shortness of breath?

I didn’t, but I’m also on an ADHD stimulant medication for brain fog.

I had covid for 36 days in March and a 17 day fever. Now I have edema and shortness of breath. I have tried heart, liver and urology doctors. None of those doctors say it their organ causing this. I finally went to the pulmonologist. I have a slight dimished breathing capacity but when I use my pulse ox it can go down to 80 when I walk. The pulmonologist gave me a Breo inhaler and it made my.lungs concrete instead of helping and he wont call back with other suggestions. Anyone know where to go?

I use Albuterol rescue inhaler (Prescription) and Albuterol nebulizer (prescription) 3 times a day when my asthma is really bad. COVID has left me with chronic asthma...its worse in the hot humid summer.

Praying for you. Asthma is so tiring.
