Question

I've had asthma since I was a kid and I'm currently on LABA ICS. I recently checked my IgE levels, and they came back at 4300. Should I be worried about this? What steps can I take to address it?

Question

I've been having shortness of breath for the past two months and it started really suddenly. At first, I was also dealing with back pain and lung pain along with a feeling of tightness. Now it's mostly just the shortness of breath and a tight feeling in my left lung. My lung X-ray came back normal and the EEG report was fine too. The doctor didn't prescribe any medicine, but I'm still struggling with shortness of breath. What could be going on, and should I be concerned about this?

Question

I'm having this issue where I keep needing to clear my throat, and sometimes in the morning, there's this black stuff in my sputum. A doctor once told me to take Montair FX daily for 20 days. I only took it for six days because I felt better and stopped, but now the problem is back. Should I start taking Montair FX again, and if so, for how long this time?

Question

I've been dealing with asthma for a couple of years now, and I've been on telekast, Acebrophylline, and montelukast for about a year. Lately, Ive been experiencing this burning sensation in my chest and sometimes I feel anxious or confused, and I've been having some really vivid bad dreams. I'm starting to think it might be the montelukast causing these issues. Are there other medications I could try for my allergies?
