I'm kind of worried about my health stuff lately. My weight's at 84.3 kg and I've been having this chest discomfort for about two years now. Last year, I saw a pulmonologist and got some tests done like an X-ray, CBP, IGE serum, and PFT. Everything was normal except my IGE serum level, which was 432.2 IUml. The doctor prescribed me Tab.FM 24 to take every night, but I never ended up using it. Do you think I should start taking the tablet again if my IGE level turns out to be high? And what are the symptoms of having a high IGE level?

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
