I'm dealing with allergic rhinitis and sinusitis right now, causing me to have a cough, headache, and a runny nose. Should I go ahead and get the COVID vaccine while I'm feeling like this, or is it better to wait until these symptoms clear up? I'm worried that getting the vaccine might make my current situation worse. Can you provide some guidance?

I've been dealing with wheezing for a while now, about 67 months, and I'm not sure whats going on. I'm a 24-year-old guy and was on Levocet M for two months because my doctor prescribed it. But I just had an IgE test, and my levels are at 486 UImL, which seems really high to me. Is there a way to lower my IgE levels? Is it something I should be worried about?

I've been dealing with allergies from things like dust and pollen, which usually leave me with a running nose and watery eyes. To manage this, I've been taking Cetrizine 10mg every few days for about a year now. I'm just a bit worried about whether there are any serious side effects from using this medication long-term? Or maybe there's a better way to handle this that I haven't tried?
