I'm really worried because I've been smoking weed daily for the past 3 years, and now I've developed some kind of skin allergy. The doctors ran a blood test, and the results showed my serum IgE level was at 6000, which sounds really bad. I've stopped smoking, but I'm nervous about what to do next, and I don't want my parents to find out about all this. How can I lower my serum IgE levels, and do you have any advice on passing allergy tests?

View allMy mom has been dealing with this chronic dry cough, and she's constantly clearing her throat. She's not experiencing any wheezing or breathing issues. It lasts for about 12 weeks before it disappears, but the cough isn't frequent and usually vanishes for 2 weeks and then doesn't show up for another 12 months. I'm getting worried and wondering if it could be something serious or possibly related to allergies?

I'm dealing with really high Immunoglobulin IGE and I've been getting this annoying skin rash and itching. My skin doctor prescribed levocetirizine to calm the itching down, but after taking it for two months, nothing's changed. Do you think I'm seeing the right type of doctor for this, or should I check in with another specialist since it might be related to my blood?
It seems like the skin doctor's approach of prescribing levocetirizine to suppress the itching caused by high Immunoglobulin E levels has not been effective in your case. Since elevated IgE levels are related to the immune system and can contribute to skin issues like rash and itching, it might be beneficial to consult with an Allergist or Immunologist for further evaluation and management. They may recommend specific medications such as Montelukast along with antihistamines like Fexofenadine to address the underlying cause of the elevated IgE levels and provide relief from the symptoms.
