unicorn 4 Posted December 8, 2018 Hi ! I have posted previously (October 22, 2018) that I had an itchy throat and had already gotten checked by a doctor specifically an internal medicine doctor . I was prescribed with anti allergies for 14 days and if it still itches, I could extend up to 30 days and it does work but it keeps itching when I stop for a day . My doctor told me to go back in case it doesn’t go away after 30 days and I did . I went back last week but the another doctor took over for a while ‘cause my doctor was out of the country and I was prescribed with an antibiotic + anti allergy . Still it’s the same thing . When I’m not able to take my anti allergy pill my throat itches and I start coughing until it starts to wheeze and I have to use a nebulizer for me to be able to breathe . Already freaking out . Send help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Send help I would say its a safe bet that you have allergies. And its normsl to come back when not on pills. I would get blood work done to figure out what your allergic too. And eliminate it from there. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PennyPanic 275 Posted December 11, 2018 allergy pills relieve the symptoms but that's all they do. Perhaps it's time to go to an allergist who can nail down what your allergic to...believe it or not, sometimes in can be something you're eating and not something in the air...eliminate the culprit and voila...no more allergies! I wouldn't freak out. I think everyone is allergic to something. But I get freaking out...I do it as well. But seriously...don't freak...just maybe investigate further with a specialist to nail down the issue and then you'll feel so much better. Keep us posted, ok?

I freak out when it’s difficult to breathe after coughing so much . I just finished taking my meds . Yesterday was the last pill that was prescribed to me but I still purchase and take it ‘cause if I don’t, the same thing happens . Is that ok to take anti allergy pills beyond the days prescribed by the doctor ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
