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'm on levocetirizine at night, and it's making me feel drowsy and weak throughout the day. Is this a normal side effect I should be worried about? My doctor prescribed it, but I'm curious if this is typical.

I'm really worried about my IgE levels; they're at 1074 kUAL. My fingers get swollen in winter, and I'm starting to think I might have an allergy to cold temperatures. I've been taking Allegra 180 for two weeks, but my IgE levels haven't changed. With the COVID vaccine, I'm concerned about having a severe reaction. Do you think it's safe for me to get vaccinated?

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.
