Did blood test my eosinophils is 7.3% I have trouble breathing. Did the X-ray of chest and all normal

Your eosinophil count of 7.3% indicates a high level, which could be related to allergies, asthma, or parasitic infections. Since your chest X-ray is normal, it is less likely to be a serious lung issue. I recommend taking a short course of an antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with any allergic reactions causing your breathing trouble. Additionally, you can use an inhaler like Salbutamol 100mcg for quick relief if needed. If symptoms persist, follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
