Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question in HCM. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist and get done Pulmonary Function Test (PFT). this will help in diagnosis of bronchitis. Wheezing with dry cough inold age is most commonly seen in bronchitis. You may need bronchodilator in meter dose inhaler with spacer device. Commonly used bronchodilator s are Long Acting Beta 2 Agonist (LABA) like fermoterol and salmeterol, Inhaled CorticoSteroids (ICS) like budesonide and fluticasone and anticholinergics Like tiotropium. So consult pulmonologist and discuss these things.
