Question 1

I have noticed dark, blackish pigmentation on my chest, arms, back, and lower portion of the neck, along with some itching. I have been receiving treatment at Batras Clinic for the past 15 months, but I am not seeing fast results. My recent blood report shows that IgE is around 516. Please suggest what I can do to effectively treat this skin problem.

Question 2

Is my report normal or should I take medicine? I do not know whether I have asthma or not but my IgE value is very high at 1900.

Question 3

Hi all. I have been having a chronic scratchy throat almost every month. It comes like a cold, stays for 5 to 6 days and then goes away. I was a smoker earlier, so I did spirometry to check whether it is asthma or COPD. Both reports were negative and the doctor advised Montek AB for 3 weeks. I also have acidity and gas issues for which I am taking Nexium D in the morning and Pan D in the evening. Today my CBC and blood report came (see attached). My serum IgE looks high. Can anyone review these two reports and let me know what is going wrong in me? My mean platelet volume is 13.6. Do I need to worry?

I want to know about my Allergy Screening Test by IMMUNO-EIA. The results are IgE 172 KU/L, Nimesulide 1.30 U/L, and Cephalosporin 1.20 U/L. What is the meaning of these values shown in my report? What should I do to treat it?

Raised IgE suggests allergic tendency. Avoid identified drugs (nimesulide, cephalosporin). Antihistamines and allergen avoidance are key.
