At first it seems we have more questions than answers. Along with the other members, I am ready to try to answer whatever your concerns are.
I hope this diagnosis and medication start you on your healing journey.
Did you doctor talk to you about airway clearance as one of the ways to get healthy again?

No. No airway clearance mentioned. I haven’t coughed any or had any fever. Just shortness of breath, abdominal and back pain.
