I've been having a tough time with a throat infection, and after getting some blood work done, I found out that my IgE level is quite high at 1475. I'm really concerned and just wondering, what could be causing this and how can I lower my IgE levels? Also, what kind of problems could come up from having elevated IgE?

I'm having a hard time dealing with constant sneezing every time I walk into a place that's even a little chilly. My nose feels blocked despite not having a runny nose, and I know I have allergic rhinitis. I'm currently on Foracort, but it doesn't seem to be helping much with these symptoms. Could there be something else going on, or is there something different I should be trying?

continue foracort, start steam inhalation

I've been having a really tough time sleeping because my nostrils keep getting blocked, and I'm pretty sure it's because of my allergic rhinitis. I was on rupafin and medrol last March, but I haven't done any follow-up consultations since then. Could that be why my symptoms are persisting? What should I do next? Should I consider going back for another check-up or is there something else that might help in the meantime?

I'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.
