I'm really worried and I need some advice. My CBS test is done, but I'm concerned because my eosinophil count is at 10 and my ESR is 44. Is this something related to asthma or could it be another issue? I'm feeling kind of anxious about what these numbers might mean. Can you help clarify this for me?

I've noticed that I keep sneezing every morning right after I wake up, and also when I'm cooking. This has been happening for almost two years now. I took cetirizine and tried some ayurvedic medicine, which helped while I was taking them, but the sneezing came back once I stopped. I'm really curious about what could be causing this persistent issue. Do you have any suggestions for getting it under control or maybe even permanently resolving it?

I recommend taking Allegra (Fexofenadine) 180mg once daily in the morning to help control your symptoms. Additionally, using a nasal spray like Flonase (Fluticasone) 2 sprays in each nostril once daily can also help reduce nasal inflammation and sneezing. Make sure to continue these medications regularly for best results.

I'm really struggling with this persistent urticaria issue I've had for a few years. I'm allergic to foods like spices, brinjal, Rajma, Urad dal, guava, oats, curd, namkeen, and too much sugar or jaggery. I've seen all the local doctors, but the problem comes back once I stop their treatments. My AEC test showed a count of 1000 when it should be under 250. I've taken a lot of antihistamines, but they mess up my digestion. Within minutes, I get weird patterns on my skin that vanish after 15-20 minutes. Can you please help me understand what's happening or suggest what I should do next?

Considering your persistent urticaria, multiple food allergies, and elevated Absolute Eosinophil Count (AEC) of 1000, consult an allergist or immunologist for comprehensive guidance; they may recommend immunotherapy, mast cell stabilizers, or biologics like omalizumab, in addition to strict avoidance of trigger foods and implementation of a low-histamine diet; also, consider gut-friendly antihistamines like levocetirizine or fexofenadine to minimize digestive side effects.

I'm dealing with allergic asthma and sinus issues since I was a kid. I usually take anti-allergy meds like Montair LC, Monlevo, and Motex LC. Right now, I've been taking just one Motair LC tablet per day. Could you guide me on the proper treatment or tell me if this medication is enough? Also, do you have any other suggestions or recommendations for managing this condition?
