I'm really puzzled and a bit worried about some recent health changes. I never had asthma or anything related to it growing up, not until I turned 18. But after I had this pneumothorax incident, which luckily resolved on its own, I suddenly started showing asthmatic symptoms. I even had my blood tested and my IgE level was at 1500. Now I'm taking allergy shots. I'm confused because if this was asthma, shouldn't I have had symptoms since childhood? Plus, there's no family history of breathing issues. Why might this be happening now?

View allI'm finally over my cold and all the symptoms, which is great. But now I'm wondering how to stop taking the tablets I've been on. I was prescribed a combination of fexofenadine 120 mg and montelukast 10 mg to take at night for six months, and I've just finished that period. The doctor who prescribed it has moved abroad, and I'm not sure what to do next. I tried skipping the medication for two days, but started experiencing itching all over my body. I was initially taking this for a runny nose from 6 am to 11 am every day. Since these medications have worked and my cold is completely cured, how should I go about stopping them?
Ceruklin Ear Drops are typically used for 3-5 days before earwax is softened and removed. Since you've already used the drops for 5 days, consider: - Continuing for 1-2 more days (max 7 days) - Having your ears checked by a doctor or ENT specialist - Using ear drops as directed and avoiding excessive use If the wax persists, consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and removal.

I'm a 28-year-old woman and for the last couple of months, I've been having some trouble with my breathing off and on. My ECG came back normal, but my RBCs were a bit low at 9.8. I saw a doctor and they gave me antiallergic meds, but they haven't really helped. I'm thinking it might be something to do with allergies because the issue started around wheat harvesting season. There's no wheezing or any sleep discomfort, but it does feel like my deep breaths get interrupted. Can allergies last this long? I'm not having any fever or throat pain, and my tonsils seem fine. Could this breathing trouble be linked to PNS? How can I find out if allergies are the real cause? This is the only health problem I'm dealing with right now.
yes PNS can cause, do spirometry, chest x ray ,allergy testing ,blood tests
