What's the next step to solve this problem?

Question

I've been struggling with a medical problem since December 2004, shortly after I had food poisoning from undercooked chicken, but most doctors I've seen said these are allergies with an unknown cause. Symptoms are constant eye redness, dark bluish circles under eyes, some energy loss, pain in the back of my neck and head, and constant ear popping and pain (my ears rarely stop popping, and this has been going on for months!). I've seen mostly eye, ENT and allergy doctors and I've taken a number of anti-allergy things, but the only things which have been effective in improvement have been Augmentin (875MG) and TobraDex. I've moved to a different apartment, changed clothes and furniture, changed shampoo and soaps... everything I can think of. What's the next step for me?

Answer 1

It could be the side effects of the medications. Check the inserts that come with your meds and see if any of the side effects listed match yours.

Answer 2

Personally, as long as you're still keeping up with the ENT and allergists, you might want to ADD some alternative medicine in. I found acupuncture to be helpful for my seasonal allergies and migraines. Just be careful that whatever you choose to do next, the person doing it is certified in your state or country.
