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've been taking amoxicillin and I've noticed I've got a rash now. I found online that penicillin-based antibiotics can have side effects like this. Should I stop taking the amoxicillin, or is it okay if I keep going but maybe take something like cetrizine to handle the allergy? I'm just really unsure about what's best to do here.
It is important to stop taking amoxicillin if you have developed a rash as it may indicate an allergic reaction. You should consult with your doctor to confirm the allergy and for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can take an antihistamine like Cetirizine to help with the rash and itching.

_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.
