I'm noticing that my heart rate goes up whenever I eat eggs or meat, and it's a bit worrying because I've already consulted a cardiologist who said I don't have any heart problems. What could be causing this?

Increased heart rate after consuming certain foods like eggs or meat could be due to food sensitivities or allergies. In some cases, certain food additives or preservatives can also trigger such a response. To help manage this, you can try taking an antihistamine like Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) at a dose of 10mg before consuming these foods. Additionally, you can also try avoiding these trigger foods to see if your symptoms improve.

I'm really struggling with a heavy cough, and I'm dealing with allergy symptoms and general weakness too. On top of that, I have swelling in my joints and itchy palms. It's been so bad that I've had to take a Levocetirizine capsule every day to manage it. Without it, I just can't handle the cough at all. Is there anything else I can do or try to make this better?

I'm trying to understand what it means to have a serum IgE total of 1575.6 KIUL. Is that considered really high? Should I be worried? Also, are there any ways to bring it down naturally, maybe with some home remedies? I'm just really curious and a bit concerned about what this could mean for my health.
