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?

What does it mean if my serum IgE levels are high? I just got my blood test results back, and my IgE levels are at 263.9, but I read that under 100 is normal for adults. Should I be concerned about this, and what could it potentially indicate about my health? Would appreciate any insights on what steps I should take next.

I've been dealing with allergic rhinitis for about 20 years now, and I've tried almost every antihistamine and nasal spray available. I recently came across a nasal spray called Azelast or Arzep, which has an antihistamine named azelastine HCl. I'm curious if it's safe to use this spray whenever I need to since it doesn't contain steroids. Can you shed some light on this?

no problem you can take

I'm dealing with this annoying throat irritation followed by a dry cough that's been bothering me since last year. It seems to get better for a while, but then it just comes back. My local doctor mentioned it might be an allergy. I've been taking levocetirizine 5 mg and montelukast 10 mg, along with using a mometasone nasal spray for the past 5 days, but I'm not seeing any relief. It's quite frustrating. I also did some tests and my CRP came back negative, but my immunoglobulin serum IgE level is pretty high at 250. Could you guide me on what to do next? Is there something else I should be trying?

It seems like you are experiencing allergic symptoms in your throat and cough. Since you have already been taking Levocetirizine 5mg + Montelukast 10mg and Mometasone nasal spray with no relief, I would recommend adding a mucolytic and a cough suppressant to your treatment regimen. You can try taking Ambroxol 30mg twice daily for mucus clearance and Dextromethorphan 10mg for cough suppression as needed. Additionally, since your Immunoglobulin serum IgE level is high, you may benefit from adding a steroid inhaler like Fluticasone propionate for better control of your symptoms. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
