Can I see an allergist that also specialises in sinus problems or should I see an ENT? I have a sinus problem/infection that is lasting over a month on antibiotics.

Additional Details


My GP referred me to an ENT in their clinic but I can't get an appointment until mid April.
This started last August and I treated it some then let it go away on its own. It came back in November I treated it for a week. It went away and it came back in mid January and I have had it ever since. I have tried several different antibiotics and decongestants, etc.

I went to the doctor this morning because my seasonal allergies have been really bad this year and she wrote me a prescription for Flonase and Zyrtec each once a day. I got it filled and immediately took the medication about 5-6 hours ago. I really don't feel much different.

Does either medication take a lot of time to work?

Does it take days to build up the medicine to working?

Yes I know I'm trying for instant gratification, but I could use some relief!

I have allergies and a deviated septum as determined by several ENT's. Has anyone had a septoplasty and did it work? Right now the only thing that works at opening my nose is the spray called Afrin. Your thoughts please,

Thank You

I don't have any other signs of allergy, but my nose itches so badly I can hardly stand it. I can't take benadryl because it makes me groggy. Any suggestions?

do allergy shots really work?

2007-02-27 11:34:50 · 5 answers · asked by Anonymous

I get severe hives (urticaria) and require a large dose of Benedryl.

I carry an Epipen for it.

Allergy testing (skin test) reveals nothing. I am allergic to dust, mold, cat dander.

I can eat almost all 'regular' sliced bread fine.

Preservatives do not seem to be a factor. Many of the breads I react to are organic, natural, or preservative free. I eat lots of preservatives and sulfites in other food.

It is not ALL of the breads I described. If I were to estimate I would say 50% of pizzaria pizza. If I make dough at home with wheat flour, yeast, water I'm fine. If I eat the sauce and toppings but no crust I'm fine. Occasional frozen pizza problems.

I'd guess I react to 20% of pita bread and 10% of tortillas.

Occasionally there is a cracker or pretzel that causes a reation. It seems to be the 'hard' style pretzel nuggets and harder crackers.

I wonder if these 'flat' breads have something in common. Perhaps they are more prone to mold spores or mites?

I have had allergies ever since i was small. I am allergic to any sort of animal hair or feathers, I'm slighty lactose intolerent, and I get seasonal allergies all year round. I dont want to take prescription medication and frankly I am really tired of this problem. My allergies almost always turn into a sinus infection which triggers other problems as well. I heard that allergy shots really work! I would like to know if any of you out there have had allergy shots and did they work for you. What is involved in the process? Does it hurt? How long does it take untill the shots start to work? Please help!!!!

Before I got pregnant I could eat bananas. During my pregnancy if I ate a banana I had really bad stomach cramps that went into my back. Now my daughter is 2 and I still cannot eat bananas. Is stomach pain considered an allergic reaction?

I get a pain in my side and an uneasy feeling off certain brands of ice cream. It must be the cream.

she tolerates cheese, etc. I have tried soy milk it has the same effect as does Lactaid, matter of fact Lactaid gives her a rash that literally burns her skin in a matter of moments after having a BM. I am now using pediasure and it seems to be working, it seems she is constipated with pediasure. Any suggestions on alternate drinks I can give her to produce a happy medium and give her the benefits milk holds for a toddler?
