My son has asthma/allergies, and now his doctor is wanting to diagnose him with ADHD. I have been told that his medications for the asthma/allergies could be causing some hyperactivity and such..Does anyone know if there is any truth in that? I have tried to find an answer on line but have had no luck in doing so! Also, if any of you have a child with asthma/allergies, does your child have 8 perscriptions for this? I feel that my doctor could be OVER medicating my son. If anyone has any answers to this it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I've been taking Claritin during the day and it works great; however, tonight I've been sneezing my head off and blowing my nose like crazy. I, too, can only occassionally breathe out of one nostril. What's a GOOD cold medicene that doesn't wipe you out? It has to be non-drowsy as I have a toddler to look after. Or...I can take something to knock me out at night, but not Nyquil or Benadryl as those knock me into next week!

I got bitten by a mosquito yesterday on my forearm and about 30 minutes after it happened, I noticed it had swollen up to about 2/3's the size of my forearm. It was also turning kind of purple. When I woke up this morning the size had decreased, and it was normal colored, but it started itching and it was hot to touch. Throughout the day it swelled up again, and it is back to covering about 2/3's of my forearm again. Does anyone know what is going on? Should I be worried?
I read somewhere that after people get bitten by mosquitoes a lot they can become immune, but they can also start getting allergic reactions, and I have gotten quite a few mosquito bites lately so I think that might be it. So does anyone know if that could be the case?

Rhinitis, how long can it last. . . i am 17 and have had it for 3 months and it shows no signs of going away or being reduced by medications. I am looking into homopathy and dont know what is causing my allergy, it is not the environment because i vacationed for a month and a half and it did nothing.

My cat scratched me pretty bad about a week ago, I cleaned it immediately and have been cleaning it and using peroxide/neosporin since. I noticed red itchy bumps around the scratch that seem to be worse when i use the neosporin? I've never had a problem using it in the past. Would betadine work better to help this heal? Are neosporin allergies common? Thanks!

Is there any point in which intolerance to a certain food (say milk or eggs for example) turns into an allergy or are they totally unrelated ?

Is intolerance showing up only as digestion problems and not other allergy symptoms ?

Can you mistakenly interrpret intolerance as allegry in blood tests or vica versa ?

Is it possible to have an intolerance to cheese, but not to milk? I know it sounds like a strange question as cheese is made form milk.
I drink a small amount of milk in my tea, but don't generally eat much cheese.
I've had headaches for years, and cut out caffeine etc, but recently I've noticed that I have headaches the next day after eating cheese....
Could it be connected?
Thanks everyone :-)

I have a band contest and my allergies are getting so bad, I can barely breathe when I eat. I'm taking Zyrtec allergy pills, I've also taken some cough/decongestant medicine and practically inhaled a tub of vaporub. I cannot go out and buy any sprays etc, so I need some home remedy type things. Thanks!
