Asked for male, 54 years old from Kochi

Hi doctor, I am copd patient, I have done first test on 25th april, from this day to until now (18th may) I am in an isolation camp in dubai under observation of dha. Physically I was well all these days and have no any specific symptoms of cavity yet. Sometimes I will have small headaches and coughs but it will not last long. Within these days dha taken 6 swab test samples and the results was 1 negative and 5 positives. Why it is happened like that? I am very curious to know the cavity status in my body.

hello George... I think you mean COVID (Cavity).
There are many patients who don't suffer dangerous effects of virus. Not all patients get all the symptoms or become serious.
Take proper treatment as suggested.

Health Query

Sir my mother aged about 70 years, is under medication for copd from 2003. From last one year, she is on oxygen (around 2 liters/minute) and intermittent bipap support. Now, though we are maintaining her spo2 around 85-90, she is still feeling difficulty in breathing. Cough or sputum symptoms are not observed. But she is feeling comfortable, if we are giving medrol tablets (methyl prednisolone) 8 m.g at least for 3 to 5 days in addition to regular inhalers foracort and tiomate. Now my query is (i) can medrol be given daily? What's the safe dose (like 4 mg or 8 mg, which can be given daily? If not (ii) with how many days gap, again the medicine medrol can given? Pls do the needful. Thanks in advance.

Medrol is a steroid, which is used for a short course during exacerbation of bronchial asthma or copd.
It must not be given on daily basis. Self medication wth steroids is dangerous because of potential side effects.
Always consult a pulmonologist before starting.
