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?

Why do I start sneezing non-stop and get a runny nose if I brush my teeth late after waking up? It's really frustrating because it affects my whole day. I saw a doctor in Nellore, A.P., and he gave me MontipLC for two months but it didnt help much. He suggested some tests at Apollo Hospital in Chennai. What do you think I should do next or what might be causing this?

I've been having a tough time with a throat infection, and after getting some blood work done, I found out that my IgE level is quite high at 1475. I'm really concerned and just wondering, what could be causing this and how can I lower my IgE levels? Also, what kind of problems could come up from having elevated IgE?

That's says you are sensitive to allergens, identify the substance and avoid it,consume more fruits,green leafy vegetables and maintain healthy lifestyle.

I'm really struggling with this long-term issue. When I take medicine, I'm okay, but if I don't, it's like the worst ever. I have this constant runny nose, continuous sneezing, and headaches, and it's just becoming too much to handle every day without medication. I've tried Allegra, Montek LC, and Cetirizine. They work for a day but then it's back to the same problems. What should I do?
