I'm really starting to worry because I've been experiencing breathlessness, especially at night when I lie down, and it's stressing me out. The CBC test showed my WBC count is 9700, and my IgE level is as high as 2700. Plus, I've got an absolute eosinophil count of 500 and an ESR of 31. Alongside all this, I've been having tingling and numbness in my hands and feet. I had an ECG, and it came back normal, which leaves me even more confused. Can you help me figure out what's going on and recommend any medication or treatment that might help?

I've been dealing with this persistent cold and a runny nose ever since I was a kid. It's really frustrating, and I'm not sure who I should go see for this. Could you suggest what kind of specialist would be the right one to consult?

You may be suffering from bronchial asthma. It would be best to consult a pulmonologist, who might recommend you be started on steroid MDI with antihistamine therapy alongside.

I've been dealing with a cough and cold for a few days, and then I started having some breathing problems. I went to a doctor and got some medicine, but it didn't completely fix the issue. I had some tests done like tc, dc, esr, hd, and ige, and even had a chest x-ray. Just got my results back today and my ige levels are almost double the max limit. I'm worried and really want to consult a doctor about what this could mean. Any advice on next steps or what might be going on?

I'm noticing this issue for the second time now. Every time I eat a banana, I wake up the next day with an irritable throat, and it feels like my throat is narrowing. It's really uncomfortable and now it's starting to feel like there's something stuck, with the pain even going to the back of my chest. What should I do about this?

That could be allergic reaction,stop consuming Banana ,drink more warm water and take rest,if its becoming more worse visit nearest hospital immediately for help
