I can understand your concern. You are having eosinophilia (high eosinophil count) with positive fungal report. So possibility of ABPA (allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis) is more in your case. CT scan of thorax is needed for the diagnosis of ABPA. This is the reason why CT scan is advised by your doctor. You will need antifungal (itraconazole), anti allergic and anti histamine drugs. Inhaled corticosteroid (fluticasone or budesonide) and inhaled bronchodilator (formoterol or salmeterol) are also needed. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
