I've been dealing with this heavy sinus issue for about 6 months now, and it's driving me crazy. I notice there's not much mucus, but I sneeze a lot, even when I try using steam. Whenever I take Montek LC, it seems to help, but if I skip even one day, my eyes feel really heavy and my nose starts running like crazy. It feels like the air is somehow getting into my nose and causing all this trouble. My doctor suggested I might need to take Montek LC forever or use an inhaler to clear the mucus. I'm really hoping for a more permanent solution. What do you think I should do?

That could be due to allergy, identify the triggering factor and avoid it, maintain healthy lifestyle.

Question

I got my Covishield vaccination on July 17, and the next day I was hit with fever, chills, and body aches. By the third day, it felt like I had a coldnasal congestion, sneezing, and shortness of breath. I usually deal with allergic rhinitis and experience allergies to fragrances and some foods, and I rely on my inhaler and L Montus tablets when things get uncomfortable. I'm just curious, could this sudden cold with shortness of breath be a reaction to the vaccination? Any ideas?

Question

I'm dealing with allergic rhinitis for quite a while now, since 2006 actually, and allercet tablets have been my go-to, though sometimes I try flomist nasal spray. But honestly, it doesn't always work for me. I'm worried about using allercet long-term though could there be side effects? I keep waking up sneezing, with a runny nose and my eyes all itchy and red. Also, every time I take allercet, I feel really drowsy and sleepy. Is there an alternative treatment or maybe even a surgery option? I just want to have a normal day without these symptoms bothering me. Could you provide some guidance?

Question

I'm supposed to have an IgE Allergy Antibody blood test in a few days, and I'm wondering about my daily routine. Is it okay to keep taking my multivitamin, Riconia Silver, or should I pause it until the test is done? I'm kind of concerned about how it might affect the results. Any advice would be great!
