Every rainy season, I seem to always get hay fever. It's like clockwork! Do you think I should get a blood test to figure out why this keeps happening?

I'm really concerned about my high IGE levelsthey've been around 1750 for the past four years. I've also been dealing with severe itching in my buttocks and thighs and I tried histo glob injections every 12 weeks, but my IGE levels haven't gone down. Do you have any advice or other treatment options that could help with this?

High IGE levels can be associated with various conditions such as allergies, infections, and certain immune disorders. In your case, with a high IGE level of 1750 for the past 4 years and severe itching in the buttocks and thighs, it is important to investigate further to determine the underlying cause. Since the Histo Globinjections have not led to a reduction in IGE levels, I would recommend considering other treatment options. One possible medication that can be considered for reducing IGE levels is Omalizumab (Xolair). The typical dosage for Omalizumab is based on weight and IgE levels, and it is usually administered subcutaneously every 2 to 4 weeks. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss this treatment option further and to determine the most appropriate course of action based on your individual medical history and condition.
