Avatar f tn Allergies have a genetic basis but not always to the same allergen. Two parents with allergies (50% chance of developing allergies), one parent 30%. It is possible that it is an allergy, however make sure the cat wasn't bathed with anything, I reacted with hives once to the shampoo I used on a puppy at work.
Avatar f tn thank you! if my diagnosis is meneires, i will certainly get another opinion i am not fond of me ent, but with our ins. she is the only ent i can use within a 20 mile area of where i live, i am also going to google meneires, and see what i can find out, so thank you again!!
203342 tn?1328737207 The more common cat allergy is to various proteins contained in cat saliva. These proteins can be deposited on hair and skin when the cat grooms itself and then become airborne when hair or dander (dead skins cells are shed. More likely the symptoms are from dust, mold, and other debris that get kicked out into the house when you first few times the central heating system kicks in.

Avatar f tn If you are able to tolerate the symptoms and if they stop at headaches only, you need not get worried. You can continue keeping the cat.
Avatar n tn The best way to find out if you have allergies is to take a couple of benadryls. If your breathing is considerably eased, then you have allergies. But you might also have COPD.
Avatar m tn OK, my computer decided to post for me. Sheesh... It's up to us to change our outlook on life - not the people in our lives. It's our responsibility to reach out to others, pick up the phone, see what's going on with them, and insert ourselves into life again. Sure, we can't do what we used to do, but we're not dead yet! I had to explain to people that part of my pain management therapy was distraction and learning not to focus on it all the time.
Avatar m tn Going to a doctor and figuring out what you need to get you feel better is the first step for you. Counseling and/or antidepressants can make a huge difference in how you feel. Once you're feeling more confident and happy, you can start working on the things in your life that you want to change. Start looking into what kind of career you're interested in. Even with health problems, you could probably work.
Avatar n tn As a good alternate treatment for the allergies, you can try using a yucca extract product, it can work wonders. Yucca has natural anti-inflammatory properties that can definitely help. Otherwise, just be careful in researching your products. Modern/homeopathic work very well together. The problem is sometimes the two schools will disagree for various reasons, which is why it's up to you to do your best to do the research, be informed, and make the best decisions for your pet.
Avatar f tn Allergies aren't hereditary but they can come and go. Some people outgrow allergies and others get them when they are older. My little brother had a lot of allergies when he was a kid (including pet dander) and outgrew them, while I didn't have them as a child but became more prone to them as an adult.
Avatar n tn Should I worry or does she have year round allergies?? I love my cat and take her to the vet anytime needed but Im tired of going if nothing is going to be done. $2000 is alot in less than 2 yrs and have it not all taken care of at once. I need a good vet but Ive been 2 3 diff ones in my area and live in a small area.

Avatar f tn He used to suffer when anywhere near cats but for some reason they picked up a stray cat and wouldn’t you know it, ever since then these symptoms started and have been getting worse. My theory is that the constant assault of the cat dander is causing an autoimmune issue which is making his glands swollen which in turn are pushing on the nerves in his should which go into his arms. Is this possible? Is there a way to determine this to be the case short of getting rid of the cat?
Avatar n tn I've had ear pain to the point of curling up like a child and crying. I was told by a very educated doc "you have facial neuralgia..took gabapentin until my ankles swelled up, then stopped. Why medicate s/thing that I don't have? Stressed out? Yep, ears will ache too. Now, ear pain has lessened as I'm sure the pollen count is down.Allergies will make you "so tired" you feel like you have the flu..I'm feeling v.v. tired ev. day and cannot do much either.
Avatar m tn If you ever know of a time when your allergies would bother you a great deal (like if you were going to have to do a major spring-cleaning, or doing a lot of dusting,...etc.), I would take one at least an hour beforehand. The meds work better taken in advance rather than taking them after the symptoms start. Your cough is worrisome as it sounds like it could possibly be asthma. I thought I knew what asthma was (chest tightness, wheezing, etc.
Avatar m tn However I would recommend you see a doctor and take medication under a doctor’s supervision. Post nasal drip also causes bad taste in mouth and can make you feel sick. Foreign body in nose, deviated nasal septum, nasal polyps should all be looked for. Wearing a mask, especially designed for people with dust and pollen allergy will help filter a lot of allergens. This will help reduce your allergies a lot. I am providing you with a few links that may help you. Cleaning comes second.
