Summary
After a second Covid-19 infection, Alpine 27248 developed wheezing and constant deep breathing at work, starting about nine months later. Azithromycin did nothing; a Flovent inhaler stopped the wheezing almost immediately and eased the other breathing symptoms, and a FeNO test showed raised airway inflammation. Exercise remained possible throughout, and months later they reported the inhaler had stopped their wheezing and shortness of breath.
