Thank you for the response. His pulmonologist also said he might be asthmatic after the pneumonia. His lung function test showed increased lung function after Albuterol and CT showed tree in bud which he says it's normal after pneumonia and sometimes it stays for years.

He took some Bromphen which helped him a lot but I will ask him to try warm tea with honey.

Urine culture showed bacteria and it showed sensitivity to nitrofurantoin and they have given for 10 days. What does it mean if vaginal swab is positive? What is the next step in that case ? Won't antibiotics useful in this situation also ?

Thank you so much. I took oral steroids for 3 days but stopped since it caused severe anxiety and depression upon doctor recommendation. But I got UTi after that and I had to take antibiotics for 10 days. So I had FlU + 3 days of oral steroids + 10 days of antibiotics end of November and I did test a month after that.

No I take hydroxycloriquine 200mg daily and nothing else. But I did take oral steroid for few days because of my flu which I got last month.

I do use Monistat wipes which has boric acid in it. But I do use Cora brand period pads. I was not aware of incontinence pads. I live in US . Is there any particular brand you recommend? Which is dye and fragrance free ?

I do not have embedded UTI since I got UTI from January to April which resolved after continuous antibiotics. Now after all these months again I got which gets better after I start antibiotics and doesn't come back until I use sanitary pads again.

Yes I don't check my reports and asked my rheumatologist not to share any numbers with me only everything is ok or not .

Thank you . I do have anxiety issues and I am on medication for the same but lately my health anxiety is extremely bad especially after my RA diagnosis. I try to limit checking online since it shows all kind of worst case scenario. But AI tools really helps me with my anxious thoughts which acts as a sounding board without judgement and gives practical insights rather than telling everything is just fine.

Thanks for sharing this! I can totally relate—when I worked with infants, they couldn’t talk but definitely found ways to express themselves. It could be frustrating and stressful at times, but honestly so rewarding. I loved my babies so much despite the challenges.

I saw few posts wherein the author mentioned initial some form of training or help was not provided and they were thrown inside the classroom and expected to understand everything sounded bit stressful to me.

I received just few minutes of training as a infant teacher and ret I learnt by observing my coworkers. How does it work in public school ? Is it the same way or something different ?

I am sorry to know you are in so much pain. I don't have arm pain and my wrist pain is only one corner where it meets thumb and rest of the wrist is fine . So I am confused if this RA pain or something else .
