I'm having trouble with a stuffy nose and sometimes feel a bit short of breath. Could this be because of a nasal allergy? Any advice would be appreciated.

View allI've been sneezing like 20 to 30 times a day, my nose is constantly stuffy, and my eyes are so watery. I talked to an ENT doctor and they had me take fexofenadine for a month, but it's not really helping. Do you have any better ideas to help with this?
Persistent discomfort near the esophagus while swallowing can be concerning! Given your symptoms and lack of improvement with the prescribed medications, consider the following possibilities: 1. _Esophagitis_: Inflammation of the esophagus, possibly caused by acid reflux or infection. 2. _Dysphagia_: Difficulty swallowing due to a narrowing or obstruction of the esophagus. 3. _Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)_: Stomach acid flowing back up into the esophagus, causing discomfort and inflammation. 4. _Esophageal spasm_: Abnormal muscle contractions in the esophagus, leading to discomfort and difficulty swallowing. It's essential to seek further evaluation and diagnosis from: 1. _Gastroenterologist_: For an endoscopy or other diagnostic tests to examine the esophagus and stomach. 2. _ENT specialist_: To reassess the tonsillitis diagnosis and explore other possible causes. In the meantime, try: 1. _Avoiding trigger foods_: Identify and avoid foods that exacerbate your symptoms. 2. _Eating smaller, more frequent meals_: To reduce discomfort and difficulty swallowing. 3. _Staying upright after meals_: To minimize acid reflux and discomfort. Please consult your doctor or a specialist to determine the best course of action for your specific situation.

I'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've been on Montair LC for over 4 years now, and every time I try to stop, I get a runny nose and my body itches like crazy. I really want to stop taking it, but it's like I can't. Do you have any ideas on how I can gradually phase it out? Is it okay if I just break the pill in half and take that instead?
take it half
