I'm really struggling with sneezing and a blocked nose, and it's been going on for almost three years. I got an allergy test done and have been using Duonase Nasal Spray for nearly two years, but I haven't found any relief. Do you have any suggestions for other treatments or solutions that might help?

I've been using fexofenadine for about three years now since I had a bad case of bronchitis that dragged on for a while. Whenever I try to stop taking it, like my doctor suggested, I end up with this crazy itching all over. The doctor's advice was to take it only if the itching starts. I'm really curious if it's safe to continue taking fexofenadine this way, and Im also wondering if there are any other methods or alternatives I should consider. What do you think?

Yes, continue all the medications.

I'm dealing with really high Immunoglobulin IGE and I've been getting this annoying skin rash and itching. My skin doctor prescribed levocetirizine to calm the itching down, but after taking it for two months, nothing's changed. Do you think I'm seeing the right type of doctor for this, or should I check in with another specialist since it might be related to my blood?

It seems like the skin doctor's approach of prescribing levocetirizine to suppress the itching caused by high Immunoglobulin E levels has not been effective in your case. Since elevated IgE levels are related to the immune system and can contribute to skin issues like rash and itching, it might be beneficial to consult with an Allergist or Immunologist for further evaluation and management. They may recommend specific medications such as Montelukast along with antihistamines like Fexofenadine to address the underlying cause of the elevated IgE levels and provide relief from the symptoms.
