    I feel you. After struggling from getting Covid in April, 2021 I started to have severe respiratory symptoms. Waking in the night barely able to breathe and felt like I was having a panic attack. I’ve had to sleep in the guest bedroom for almost 2 years as not to wake my husband in the night while I’m hacking and coughing up so much mucus. I also had to quit my job in December 2021, because I was doing so poorly and just couldn’t function. I was doing a lot of research on diet and lifestyle and really cleaned it up. Eventually, I went to a Pulmonologist in March, 2022. The chest CT showed a lot of inflammation and he also did a PFT. He diagnosed me with Asthma. When I mentioned to him, could it possibly be Eosinophilic Asthma, he said that’s not what I had… 😒
    He prescribed an inhaler that seemed to work at first but then after a few months, it stopped working at all. And then continued with my research and diet and lifestyle changes because I was not interested in returning to that Pulmonologist and thought, I could heal it naturally. A month after seeing him I had my yearly physical and had my PCP add on a complete Eosinophil count. The number was 666, which anything over 500 is high. A year and a half later I had my numbers checked again and now they’re at 1685 almost triple! I decided to see a new Pulmonologist. He looked at my bloodwork and my PFT and immediately said I have Eosinophilic Asthma!
    He also said I did NOT have COPD which the 1st Pulmonologist said I had. 😡
    He now wants me to start on Biologics injectable medication, it I am already doing a treatment called LDA Immunotherapy through my Naturopath, formerly known as EPD which was the name of it when it was created in the UK. I am not doing Biologics as it’s just another Band-Aid to slap on a symptom! I will take my chances with LDA, even though the Pulmonologist told me to be careful with Immunotherapy and that I was in “ uncharted waters”….. 😒🤦🏻‍♀️

      Wow, I relate to this so much. The same thing had happened to me. I knew that I didn’t have just regular asthma when no medication was working for me. Eventually Ended up in the hospital for examinations and yup, it was eosinophilic asthma. Luckily (after years) i’m on this medication called Dupixent, it’s life changing. The downside is, it is a shot taken every 2 weeks but I prefer that than sleepless nights.

      @@marysolp9621 I am totally there with you! I am actually starting a supplement called Hist Reset by pure encapsulations in a few days to help with my histamine/MCAS. This is likely the issue. I refuse to do any more suggestions from the medical community as it seems to have gotten me nowhere…. 😔
      Look into pro metabolic eating to fix the metabolism, hormones and a leaky gut. I believe implementing this will heal our bodies. Good luck to you!! ❤️

    Wow! I feel like my last comment was SOOO long ago with the information that I have found out since then.
    I hope you see my comment!
    I have recently discovered that the root cause to my Eosinophils being high and my immune system being all out of whack is my root canals and wisdom teeth cavitations!
    I am currently working with a Biological Dentist as she is removing my root canals and cleaning out the wisdom teeth cavitations. They have never caused me any facial pain, but have driven disease systemically throughout my body. Please watch the documentary Root Cause. Also look into what RANTES is in Dentistry. I hope this gives you hope as it has me. The inflammation is in our bodies for a reason, if we could just find the root cause….
    I will be getting my other 2 root canals removed and all 4 wisdom teeth cavitations cleaned out at the end of April 2024. Today is March 4th. I’m excited and nervous because I am flying to Frankfurt, Germany to have this done.
    If anyone would like to know updates here, just let me know. I check my notifications often.
    Good luck!! ❤

      @@marysolp9621 Yes, everything went well! Symptoms have also gotten better! I just started implementing pro metabolic eating also to heal my metabolism, hormones, leaky gut and immune system. Look into Ray Peat. Also look up the Minnesota starvation experiment. Very interesting what eating too little does to our bodies. I unknowingly did this for most of my life. 😔 It may take 1-3 years to heal. But at least it’s NOT a diet and you don’t have to restrict anything! This is how we should be eating!! Not afraid of food OR sugar!! 🙌🏻❤️💪🏻

      @@DhanaLakshmi-tz6mg Somewhat. I am also detoxing my body now by doing a parasite cleanse using Ivermectin and Fenbendazole. Along with supplements like Vit D3+ K2, curcumin and milk thistle. Along with diatomaceous earth as a binder, homemade probiotics and liver detox with coffee enemas.

      @@leannshort2211sounds like quackery to me that a root canal causes Eosinophilic asthma to be honest. Also you have not said what your last 3 Eosinophils count is now? If you are “healed” you should be getting that tested monthly for at least 6 months.Unfortunately the quacks prey on the most desperate and vulnerable looking for answers. Some people so get healed from simply placebo effect, but a lot only find temporary relief that way.
