Shortness of breath

by UPUP2009, Jul 24, 2009 03:57PM
Hello,
My father suffers from heart disease, lung fibrosis and diabetes.
And complained of shortness of breath during sleep and also when walking.
Take the following medicines:
Fusix 40 mg - Vastarel 35 mg - Plavix 75 mg Enapril10 mg - Simvagen 20 mg - Lanoxin 0.125 mg Asprin 100 mg - Diamicron 30 mg

But still the problem of shortness of breath from time to time, especially when sleeping and during the walk.

After visiting the doctor said the treatment Ventol 2mg.

My question:

1- What are the symptoms in the presence of lung fibrosis, and in the presence of fluid in the lungs?
I hope that explains it.

2- If due to lung fibrosis, are advised to treat other than ventol 2mg ?

Thank you for your cooperation.
