Question 1

I'm really concerned about my mom's health. She started having breathing problems and a heavy chest about 34 months ago, and even though she took medication for eosinophilia, she didnt get much relief. The eosinophil count seems under control now, but her IgE levels are still really high. The doctor had her on a nasal spray and some other meds for 20 days, then switched them up a bit. Still, the high IgE level worries me. We've just gotten her PFT and RAST tests done. Im curious about what else we should be looking into or considering for her treatment. Could this be part of something more serious, and is there anything else we should ask the doctor to test for?

Accepted Answer

consult to pulmonologist

Question 2

My friend has this issue where every time she smells something, she starts coughing and it's like her nose gets blocked or something. She's been using a Duolin inhaler and some cough medicine, but it only seems to help temporarily. We're kind of worried and wondering if there's an actual treatment to get rid of this problem for good. Any advice on what might be going on or what we should do?

Question 3

I'm curious about what's going on with my health. I've been experiencing watery eyes, a runny and stuffed nose, body aches, an itchy throat and nose, and headaches that all come on suddenly. I usually take cetirizine, and it seems to clear up these symptoms within a day. But the problem is they keep coming back every couple of weeks or even sooner. Plus, I end up sneezing like 60 to 70 times in a day, which is just exhausting. And these really intense headaches are happening every other day too. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

allergic rhinitis, avoid the allergen

My wife's been dealing with a dry cough for over two months now. We did an X-ray and some blood tests, and the doctor thinks it's an allergy. She's already been through three courses of tablets, but there's still no improvement. What do you think we should do next? Do you have any suggestions?
