I'm allergic to eggs and it's really frustrating. Every time I have something with eggs, like stuff from the Pasty Cake Bakery, I get this awful abdominal pain that just won't go away, even after taking medicine. Some people think I'm just imagining it, but I'm pretty sure it's real. What's weird is that sometimes I get the same pain after having cheese or paneer dishes at certain restaurants. I havent eaten eggs in the last 25 years, but now I'm thinking about trying them again. What do you suggest? Are there specific foods I should stay away from? And is there any chance this allergy could be cured?

If you have a confirmed egg allergy, it's safer to continue avoiding eggs and egg-based products, even if you haven't eaten them for a long time. If you feel the urge to try eggs again, its best to consult an allergist first. They may advise you on how to approach it, and you may even undergo treatment like oral immunotherapy in some cases, but that requires professional supervision.

I'm experiencing this unusual burning sensation all over my body, but there's no fever. My torso feels dry and a bit allergic, though it's not really itchy. Oddly enough, gently rubbing my torso seems to help. Along with this, my nose has been drippy, and my stomach bloated after eating rice and egg with some red chili flakes for breakfast. This all began yesterday morning. I woke up with my face feeling hot, and then it spread to my hands and feet. It's been like this since then. I'm 47 years old and can't figure out what kicked off these symptoms. The night before it all started, I had two shots of rum and prawns for dinner, which is unusual for me because I don't drink often and rarely eat seafood, particularly prawnsthe last time was like a year or two ago. What's going on with my body?

That could be allergic reaction due to Prawns,stay hydrated and visit physician for appropriate management.

I'm dealing with allergic rhinitis and my doctor switched me to Allegra 180 instead of Montair LC. I've been taking Allegra 180 but it's not really helping much. Could I go back to taking Montair LC since it worked well for me before?

Yes You can use any of them but montek lc causes more sedation over allegra.

I've had allergies to dust, some foods, and certain medications since I was a kid, and recently found out my IGE levels are really high, around 1200. I take Techzine 5 mg every day, but I still get this burning sensation in my eyes, awful itching, and some red spots on my hands and legs whenever I have an allergic reaction. Should I be worried about my IGE being this high? It's freaking me out a bit, so any advice would really help.

Based on your symptoms and high IgE levels, it is important to continue managing your allergies. In addition to Techzine 5 mg, you can also consider adding Allegra 180 mg once daily to help with the itching, red spots, and burning sensation in your eyes. It is also advisable to avoid triggers that worsen your allergies, such as dust and certain foods. Monitoring your IgE levels regularly with your doctor is recommended to track your response to treatment.
