My mom is 55 and has allergies to penicillin and doxycycline. She also has diabetes and high blood pressure and had bypass surgery 10 years ago. Can she safely take the covid vaccines covishield or covaxin? Do these vaccines have any side effects for someone with her allergies and medical history?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For your mom, both Covishield and Covaxin are generally safe, even with her medical conditions. However, it’s crucial to consult her doctor due to her diabetes, hypertension, and allergies, as they may affect vaccine response.

View allI've been dealing with a dust allergy and was advised to use Metaspray. I didn't get a refill for about four days after my last one ran out, and during that gap, I didn't take any other meds. Then, I caught a cold and fever, but that's starting to calm down now. I'm back on my Metaspray, but I'm really struggling with a dry cough and severe throat pain from all the coughing. What should I do?

I'm really starting to worry because I've been experiencing breathlessness, especially at night when I lie down, and it's stressing me out. The CBC test showed my WBC count is 9700, and my IgE level is as high as 2700. Plus, I've got an absolute eosinophil count of 500 and an ESR of 31. Alongside all this, I've been having tingling and numbness in my hands and feet. I had an ECG, and it came back normal, which leaves me even more confused. Can you help me figure out what's going on and recommend any medication or treatment that might help?

I've been dealing with a cough and cold for a few days, and then I started having some breathing problems. I went to a doctor and got some medicine, but it didn't completely fix the issue. I had some tests done like tc, dc, esr, hd, and ige, and even had a chest x-ray. Just got my results back today and my ige levels are almost double the max limit. I'm worried and really want to consult a doctor about what this could mean. Any advice on next steps or what might be going on?
