Patient: I  AM A RENAL TRANSPLAT  PATIENT  SINCE 2003 NOW  I  HAVING    ALLERGIC   BRONCHITIESALREADY   HAD  TWO  COURSES  OF  ANTI BIOTIC  ( TENOVIC 250)  AND  NOW   ON  CEFTUM 250IT  IS  TAKING  LONG  TIME  CURE ( NOW  3 WEEKS)WHT  TO  DOX  RAY  SHOWS  CLEAR  CHEST Doctor: Hello,Thank you for asking at HCM.I went through your history and would like to make suggestions for you as follows:1. I would like to know more about you like your age, reason for renal transplant, any medications, any other medical conditions, allergic bronchitis since what age, how was diagnosed, whether a smoker, your environment, any nose symptoms, any eye symptoms, any hospitalization, etc etc.Above details would help me to understand your complaints better and therefore to make suggestions for you more specifically.2. However, at present, I would suggest you allergy testing for common air-borne allergens like house dust mites, molds, pollens, insect proteins, pet dander, etc. This will help you identify the substances causing allergies to you as well as to know the measures to avoid them.3. For symptom relief, I usually suggest my such patients to use salbutamol/levosalbutamol inhaler to be used on as-and-when-needed basis.4. Regular breathing exercises and steam inhalation may also help in a long run.5. In general, please avoid exposure to dusts, smokes and air pollution as much as possible.Hope above suggestions will be helpful to you.Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at HCM.Wish you the best of the health ahead.Thank you & Regards.
