Seems a long time for it to be an allergic reaction. You should probably consult a doctor about this....
Hi Concerned, You might want to take a picture of your son's rashes so you can show a doctor later. We aren't really doctors here and we can't even see your son! :-) I hope you can figure this out....
How are you doing? Did your odd symptoms settle down?...
Hi gupta, Glad you are feeling better. However, you cannot promote a doctor like that on this forum. Please read the forum rules before posting again....
Hi Ittiandro, I edited your post as you had it in all capital letters which is hard to read and seems like shouting. :-) Hope you don't mind....
Your recent symptoms sound almost exactly what I had this past week. They've resolved now, so I put it down to allergies. I also suddenly became allergic to my TV room (ie the sitting room where we...
I had a reaction like that when I was bitten by a deer tick. I was just finishing up treatment for Lyme disease and this was a re-infection. Do you have any other symptoms?...
Hi Wendy, Sorry you didn't get a response to your post. How are you doing? What did the pulmonologist say? Have your symptoms settled down?...
Hello AnxietyRose, Welcome to the forum. Sorry you are have such a hard time. It is very difficult to exclude all those foods and still eat well but do keep working on it. However, this could be just...
You might find that moving over to a healthy diet will help your anxiety a lot. There is more and more evidence that our gut health not only affects our immune system but our psychological health as...
It's been a strange year, that's for sure! Hope you are able to get some rest and get back on track....
Hi PeePee, Welcome to the forum! You certainly aren't alone in your struggles. I hope those new prescriptions give you some relief....
Hope you are feeling better, Joan....
Hope everything went well at the dentist's....
Does your GP have a plan of action?...
Sorry you didn't get any replies to your post. Have you had any luck finding glycerin-free products?...
Hi Anuarg, That is strange that the spray would result in different reactions in each nostril, isn't it. I imagine that means that you have more than one problem going on. We have two other long...
Hope you are continuing to improve, Joan. Do you think it has something to do with the change of seasons?...
Hi Melissuh, Welcome to the forum! Sounds like you have had some very frightening episodes. I have heard doctors say a virus can trigger asthma and also that asthma makes a person more likely to get...
Welcome to the forum! Sorry you are having such trouble. Do you think it would work to get immunotherapy shots for the cat allergy. Without that constant irritation, perhaps you other allergies would...
I had very good luck with Essential Enzymes when I was having trouble with digesting food. I wonder if taking an antihistamine before you eat would help? Of course they would be about the same price....
Hi Kcrispcat, Are you getting any relief from your symptoms yet?...
I am certainly not a doctor, but it sounds to me that your asthma is not under control. Should you really be using the same rescue inhaler you have used since you were in college? Doctors improve...
Have you been back to your doctor? The inhaler you are using might not be suitable for you now....
Wow, sorry you had to go through that, how frightening. Thanks so much for posting though, it could really help someone avoid what you had to get through....
Gosh, that's difficult, so many times chili pepper wouldn't be declared just included in "spices" or "seasonings". I would think your best bet would be to simply make all of your own food. If you are...
Can you link the itchiness to a particular food? This happens to me if I eat a lot of something -- like when the tomatoes first come in to the garden....
Hope they are super sleuths and find out what's causing this!...
scifigal, on the other thread about hives, a member said that they found they actually had a low-level infection and that was what was causing the hives. Could this be the case for you, as well?...
Sorry you are having such a harrowing time. I hope you and your allergist can come up with an answer soon so you can stay out of the ER and not miss out on fun with your daughter....
One thing you might want to know is that there is no scientific evidence of false positives in Lyme testing. They would have to have a 100% accurate test in order to prove that. That being said, if...
If you went back to the allergist, they would start you on a lower dose. At least, that is what the allergist had to do for me in order for me to tolerate shots for bee, wasps and hornet venom. It...
Hi Taygeta, I'm also allergic to NSAIDS and as I have been battling Lyme Disease for many years, pain relief has been a major problem. For a while I did use the stronger meds, Tramadol and Vicodin...
I'm happy to answer you questions. I have sent you an email....
Hornet, you actually have the perfect confirmation that it is Lyme Disease and co-infections. The fact that you feel worse on treatment is the Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction. It shows that bacteria are...
Hope your infections are under control now. Sorry no one here seems to have had your experience. Can you tell us about what the hospital did for you?...
Hi hornet, I had the symptom you describe. It was attributed to swelling of the meninges caused by Lyme disease (aseptic meningitis, not to be confused with viral or bacterial meningitis). This has...
This discovery could have far reaching effects on a number of conditions. http://neurosciencenews.com/lymphatic-system-brain-neurobiology-2080/ ...
Can you get a second opinion on the evaluation? Did they change the standards of what qualifies as asthma? Or are your medications keeping it that well under control? So many questions!...
Hi Nazareth, I had all of the symptoms you mentioned in your original post. I was finally diagnosed with Lyme Disease (only tested positive after the third bite), Ehrlichia and then Babesia. I never...
Hi M60 I added a subject to your post, to gain more attention....
Hi Smitty, I just added a subject to your post. Welcome to the forum, BTW...
Hi pamelaxe, Welcome to the forum. I'm sorry you didn't get a response to your post. Does the immunotherapy seem to be helping your daughter? I hope you told her doctor that it is causing her to be...
Hope your son's migraines have been resolved. It looks like no one here is familiar with this as a side effect of allergy shots. I did a search of the old threads and no one mentioned it there,...
There is a movement in the medical community to rename Lyme Disease MSIDS, Multi-Source Immune Deficiency Syndrome. While it is only a name this may go a long way to expanding the understanding of...
So sorry you are feeling so ill. I hope you will continue to look for ways to get better and a doctor who will help you....
Well, a lot of us have experience with suffering from a condition and not getting help for doctors, if that helps any! When I mentioned yeast, I was talking about a systemic candida infection, which...
Hi Thomas, I'm sorry you are struggling with this discomfort and getting no help from your doctors. I had to look up Angular Cheilitis, to be honest, but I saw that nutrition (in particular B...
Hi henessy, In your other thread you posted before going to the doctor, Razzle suggested your problem could be due to a fungal infection of the sinuses. Did you ever look into that? As Razzle points...
Thanks for clearing that up, 12Linus17!...
