<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.yes I have been on Daliresp for 8 days now and my breathing is still heavy but the little pulsometer shows my oxygen level improving is that a good thing even though i am still breathing hard when walkingalso is it safe to have a beer or wine once in awhile with this medication?  <response>: Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist and get done1. Chest x ray2. PUT pulmonary function test to rule out chest infection and bronchitis. Even after treatment for 8 days, you still feel hard on breathing, so better to rule out above possibilities first. You may need inhaled bronchodilators too. And dont Chat Doctor. It is not a good habit. You should quit all your habits. So consult pulmonologist and discuss all these and start treatment accordingly.
