I'm looking for some advice because my eosinophils are still high; the latest blood test showed 925. I finished my TB treatment back in July 2021. My cholesterol is under control since I had extra pulmonary TB in the heart area. I just need to know what could be causing thisis it some kind of reaction or allergy? I have a lingering slight cough, but it's not really bothering me. All my other tests for lungs, kidneys, etc., are normal. What should I do next?

View allI'm really struggling with my allergic rhinitis, and I've had it for years. I got tested with a skin prick test and it turns out I'm allergic to dust mites and histamine. I haven't found any solution that works. Is there a way to actually cure this?
Aman, to help remove the stuck sensation: *Immediate Relief* 1. Drink plenty of warm water or tea to help dislodge any remaining particles. 2. Gargle with salt water (14 teaspoon salt in 8 oz water) several times. *Soothing Measures* 1. Suck on lozenges or cough drops to stimulate saliva production. 2. Use a humidifier to add moisture to the air. 3. Try honey or Throat Coat Tea to calm the throat. *Medical Attention* If the sensation persists or worsens, consult a doctor or ENT specialist to rule out any complications.

So Ive been dealing with an itchy throat for a while now and tried a bunch of meds, but none of them seemed to help. My doctor suggested I get a Sr IGE test, which I did, and my levels came back at 373, but the normal range should be below 158. What exactly is IGE and does this mean I have allergies? Will medications help get my levels back to normal? And what kind of allergen could cause this? Would really love some guidance on what to do next.
