I'm noticing that my eosinophil levels are pretty high, and I seem to be really allergic to dust and cold weather. It's like clockwork, every time the weather changes, I start having issues. Could this be related to those high eosinophil levels? Should I be concerned or do something specific about it? Looking for some guidance on what steps might help manage these flare-ups.

View allI'm wondering if taking L Montus FX and Medral 4mg for a long time to manage my dust allergy is actually safe. Are there any serious side effects I should be worried about if I continue using them? It's been a while, and I'm a bit concerned about the long-term effects on my health. Can you advise if it's okay or if I should consider any alternatives?
_Hypothyroidism Management: Next Steps_ Your TSH level of 14.33 indicates hypothyroidism. Consult an endocrinologist or a primary care physician for proper management. _Initial Steps:_ 1. *Thyroid hormone replacement therapy*: Your doctor will likely prescribe synthetic thyroid hormones (e.g., levothyroxine) to replace the deficient hormones. 2. *Initial dosage*: A typical starting dose is 25-50 mcg of levothyroxine, which may be adjusted based on your response. 3. *Regular TSH monitoring*: Schedule follow-up appointments every 6-8 weeks to monitor your TSH levels and adjust the dosage as needed. _Lifestyle Modifications:_ 1. *Dietary changes*: Ensure adequate iodine intake through foods like seafood, dairy, or iodized salt. 2. *Selenium-rich foods*: Include selenium-rich foods like Brazil nuts, fish, or turkey in your diet. 3. *Regular exercise*: Engage in moderate-intensity exercise, like brisk walking, to help manage hypothyroidism. By working closely with your healthcare provider and making lifestyle modifications, you can effectively manage your hypothyroidism and achieve a normal TSH level.

I've been having a really tough time sleeping because my nostrils keep getting blocked, and I'm pretty sure it's because of my allergic rhinitis. I was on rupafin and medrol last March, but I haven't done any follow-up consultations since then. Could that be why my symptoms are persisting? What should I do next? Should I consider going back for another check-up or is there something else that might help in the meantime?

So Ive been dealing with an itchy throat for a while now and tried a bunch of meds, but none of them seemed to help. My doctor suggested I get a Sr IGE test, which I did, and my levels came back at 373, but the normal range should be below 158. What exactly is IGE and does this mean I have allergies? Will medications help get my levels back to normal? And what kind of allergen could cause this? Would really love some guidance on what to do next.
