What I wish I had asked my GP/asthma nurse (when first diagnosed 😉)
Hi everyone This is a repost of one of my posts from over 2 years ago 😱😱😂, but I thought it would be useful to update it, and repost it to anyone new to the forum and to asthma in general! A few years ago I read an article about shared appts with GPs ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-45770998 ), and

Allergy tests
Hi everyone, first post on here. I am wondering whether to get an allergy test as my itchy skin is getting worse. I wash & moisturise with epaderm plus double base. But recently the itching is moving around, which does seem strange. I take cetirizine daily but this isn't helping much anymore. Could

Gonna take a little bit longer than 9 weeks....
Yesterday I completed the first run of week 5. I thought it looked a bit daunting but actually I really enjoyed it. However, I had an allergy test this morning and the patches have to stay on my back for 3 days, and I can't shower until Thursday. So, I think I will do run 1 again to get back into

Food intolerance test
After my last couple of posts, I have come to the conclusion thanks to all the lovely people in here that I should probably check myself for food allergies so I have ordered the smartblood food intolerance test (only the 1st step though)... Although I am almost certain I have no allergies it would be

Hashimoto thyroid
I was on Armour thyroid 30+ 15 for a few years. Been getting rash on arms after dinner. I recently changed to Synthroid and cytomel but still having a rash. Has anyone experienced this? Had a allergy test done which showed allergy to cows milk. How odd because rash appears before I have my evening milk

Gluten allergy test negative - should I still go GF?
Hi all! I’ve heard Hashimoto’s thyroid antibodies can be increased by gluten antibodies in the body. With this info I went to a GI doctor and got tested for a gluten allergy but it came back negative. I also LOVE bread and pasta and don’t seem to get any digestive trouble from them so this was great

Allergies to Food
Hi, I used to think that I was unique in having so many food allergies. I was wrong. In the last 10 plus years, I've been getting more sensitive to foods - so sensitive that I've actually been diagnosed with "Food Phobia" by a medical doctor. A few years ago, after experiencing a horrible anaphylactic

APS and food allergy
A recent study supports a link between antibodies and food allergies. https://www.empr.com/home/mpr-first-report/acaai-2019/food-allergy-presence-associated-with-antiphospholipid-antibodies/ My Antiphospholipid antibodies dropped substantially when I started a high fiber diet and limited eggs and dairy

Lactose In NDT and Possible Milk Intolerance dilemma 🤔
I have been using Thyroid-S for some time now and have found it to be the best medication for me. I have also been gluten free for two years which has helped. I am however, experiencing chronic sinus issues which I' ve had for a long time on and off well before I was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism. I

Stomach acid-reducing drugs may raise risk of future allergies
I really don't feel the need to say much as an introduction after all the PPI posts here. However, I shall take one sentence from the paper:
We report an epidemiologic relationship between gastric acid-suppression and development of allergic symptoms.
And then suggest, while PPIs might have their

Just got letter in to say doctor has referred me for another CT scan in October...Not sure why, I suspect I may have a bit of asthma, but I feel my lungs are restricted

Allergy Testing
I went for a private allergy test and was told I had sensitivity to yeast and cows milk. I've eliminated these from my diet and after 6 weeks my asthma has improved a lot. I was prescribed Pred, Fostair, Montelukast and Avamys and am on a waiting list for an injection. Now I just have a puff or two

Itchy irritable skin in scalp, then back of neck, now on chest and shoulders: Pred side effect? New autoimmune disorder?
I'm also back on
allegra
which I've taken intermittently for seasonal allergies. Nothing seems to be helping much. The second dermatologist did some patch testing that came up with nothing.
