Allergy triggers: A full inbox consultation with Healthtap allows you to upload the test results including the pulmonary function testing. From your description the allergic reaction to Alternaria is a trigger for your symptoms. Please avoid this trigger and use bleach solution to clean your home, bath areas and windows. A steroid inhaler and Albuterol may be helpful, and the dosing and schedule may be adjusted.

33/m. Never smoked. No cough, intermittent SOB, relieved with inhaler. Clear CXR, lung sounds normal. Allergies/PN drip, and sometimes very small streaks blood in mucus after throat clearing. Also have blood in nose occasionally. Suggest lung cancer?
I have mild Asthma. My lung doc moved. I went to an Allergist for tests. No allergies. He also treats Asthma, and offered to treat me. Today he took me off Montelukast, saying that I don't have allergies, so it's not needed. Does that make sense?
Is it ok to take primatene tablets? I have really bad allergies and was prescribed singulair (montelukast) two years ago. Zyrtec does not help me. Symptoms persist and now i also have chest tightness and i squeek when i breathe at night.
Severe allergies. I take Singulair (montelukast) 10mg 1x day and Ventolin inhaler 2-3x day. Not much of a relief. Can I take zyrtec too...
Does Singulair cross the blood brain barrier and does it cause dementia. Singulair, now available as the generic montelukast, is a popular and effective allergy medication also used in asthmatics who have allergies. I read where it can. Is it true?
