I'm dealing with allergies pretty badly because of dust and strong perfume smells. It gets to the point where I'll sneeze non-stop for like 10 to 15 minutes, often more than 15 times. I've been using MONTEMAC FX or MONTEMAC L to help with it and while they do work, the side effects leave me feeling super sleepy and just not myself the next day. I've also found out that I can't take levocetirizine and anything with FX. Can you recommend something else that won't make me feel drowsy?

View allI'm really struggling with sneezing and a blocked nose, and it's been going on for almost three years. I got an allergy test done and have been using Duonase Nasal Spray for nearly two years, but I haven't found any relief. Do you have any suggestions for other treatments or solutions that might help?

I'm kinda puzzled about my situation and could use some advice. I had an IgE level of 200 iUmL and was dealing with this dry cough that kept coming back every 48 to 60 hours. My GP gave me an inhaler, but then I saw an ENT who suggested septiline, some syrup with dextromethorphan hydrobromide and chlorpheniramine maleate, and recharje plus capsules. Thankfully, I'm feeling better now. Thing is, I also have dyshidrosis but no trouble breathing. So, I'm curious why my IgE was high in the first place? Could it be related to these issues or something else entirely?

I'm experiencing this really frustrating issue where my skin starts itching about 45 days after I eat things like tur dal or chana dal. It's not just itching eitherthere's noticeable swelling, and it's super irritating. I've been taking cetirizine tablets to help with the itching, but they leave me feeling dizzy afterwards. Is there anything else I can do to manage these symptoms, or should I be avoiding certain foods altogether? I'm just not sure what steps to take next.
Here's a step-by-step approach to help you manage this issue: Identifying the Cause 1. Food allergy or intolerance: It's possible that you have a food allergy or intolerance to certain legumes like tur dal and chana dal. 2. Histamine release: Cetrizine helps alleviate itching, but the dizziness side effect suggests that histamine release might be a contributing factor. Dietary Changes 1. Elimination diet: Try removing tur dal, chana dal, and other potential allergenic foods from your diet for 2-3 weeks to see if symptoms improve. 2. Food diary: Keep a food diary to track which foods trigger itching and swelling.
