Possible Pleursy, Bouts Of Pneumonia, Asthmatic. On Lorazpan. Help

I have a pressure/pain for three years now. I have been told that I may have Pleursy yet a recent chest x-ray revealed nothing? The pain is in the bottom left side of my left lung . This pain started after my second bout of pnenoia (sp?). I am also asthmatic and my puffers don t help. I am prone to lung infections. This pain is mild but constant 24/7. No one knows what I have. I take a lot of medications, thyroid, lithium , quientaine, lorazpan, clorazapan. Could it be my liver that is causing the pain? Is some of the liver not located behind the lung? I drink lots of water as directed by my psychiatrist . I eat healthy, don t drink or smoke. What is this pain under my left lung?? Thank you.

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for calling H.C.M.Forum.
Asthma is a chronic disease with lots of secretions every time you get attack. You should see that you use medicines till you get complete relief,till all the secretions are expelled or dried up. Otherwise the remnant secretions may aggregate at the bottom of the lungs. These may cause pain after few such attacks.
The pain could be due to gastric irritation caused by a number of drugs, of course inevitable. It can be confirmed by gastroscopy. So i advise you to consult a gastro enterologist.
I also advise you to avoid spices, junk foods, and oily foods.
Wishing for a quick recovery. If you have any doubts you can approach H.C.M.
Best regards.
