Hello! I.m writting this to get some opinions. I always had some mental health issues during my life, now I.m 28M. I had a major mental health episode in 2021 and I.m not sure if it can be schizo or not. For describing it: strong aggitation, suicidal thought, just thought because the only suicidal thought that I had was to throw myself from the window, but I didn.t want to do it, but my brain was telling me to do it, and the aggitation was making it worse, strong anxiety and depression. Like akathisia. Intense brain fog. And some obbsesive uncontrolable thoughts, like the thoughts were running in my mind. I was taking montelukast and stopped it because it was blamed to give this kind of symp

Hello! Are there any of you here who take antihistamines and give you anxiety? I always get jittery and agitated on them and a little bit depressed. But they help.
Hello! Is it possible to react to the plastic capsule in which cromolyn is introduced? I took 1/4 from a capsule disolved in water and it seemed to be better
Hello! I need a piece of advice. I took cromolyn for 2 months but I didn.t see any visible improvement and it kept getting worse in terms of symptoms. Shortness of breath like couldn.t climb stairs, vomiting, cramps, reflux, anxiety, depression, derealization, stuffed nose, sniffing, brain fog. Made my reactions to food worse. I stopped about 5 days ago, and symptoms improved, I.m kinda stable, still have symptoms but far from what it was on it. Should I try again or is it clear that this is not for me?
Hello guys! Is it ok taking famotidine if I do not have heartburn or GERD symptoms? Bloating is my major symptom gut related and sometimes stomach cramps and gases.
Hello guys! I`m taking cromolyn now for 5 weeks and a part of my symptoms like anxiety, depression and digestive symptoms improved a lot, but my breathing got worse and even my inhalers are not helping very much. I had this from the begining but my doctor told me to push through. Now, after 5 weeks, it`s the same and I don`t like it at all. I guess it`s not worth it to go on but I`m asking for your opinion also. I also had this from antihistamines too, I`m not sure why. I have another solution to add montelukast. I took it in the past and it helped a lot, but I had mental side effects from it.
Hello. Those of you who took oral cromolyn, after how much time did you observe the positive effects and how much did it last your flare phase? Also did it help your respiratory symptoms?
Does it matter so much when it.s taken? I didn.t observe any difference if taken before meals, 30 mins after meal, 2h after meal or even while eating.
Hello guys, writting to you from ER. Took my cromolyn this evening and after 15 minutes my throat started closing, couldn.t breath, had the impending doom and felt like syncope and foggy vision. They gave me IV hydrocortison, and it.s a little bit better now. I really feel cromolyn is helping me in some ways, but it.s giving e this kind of respiratory reactions which I.m not comfortable with to be honest. Is it worth it to keep going with cromolyn?
Hello guys. Did any of you who took cromolyn have asthma exacerbations? Even my inhaler is not working enough
Hello guys. Started cromolyn last Friday and although I see some improvements, it makes my reactions really hard to manage, I mean it made my MCAS so worse. I react to almost everything I eat now. Should I push through or stop it? Is it normal to make MCAS worse in the begining? Another strange thing which I observed is that if I take antihistamines or even cromolyn when I do not have or have little symptoms I react bad to the pills, but if I take them when I`m having many symptoms or in a flare it helps instantly. I don`t understand my body anymore.
Hello everyone! Just asking for an opinion. Got back my western blot results and IgG Borrelia afzelii is positive and also p41 is positive. All the other ones are negative, including IgM and Babesia and Bartonella. My symptoms are since a long time and I was diagnosed with MCAS recently. (Asthma, nasal congestion, digestive issues, anxiety, agitation, depression, palpitations, but no obvious Lyme symptoms like joint pain). Also I do not remember being bitten by a tick, but didn`t give much importance about that. Do you think is this Lyme desease?
Hello guys! I just got my receipt for cromolyn today and bought my first bottle. I am very nervous because I am extremely sensitive to meds and supplements in general. How was for you for the first time? Especially those super sensitive.
Hello! For those who moved in a new house, how did you manage? I recently moved into a new apartment and everything is new and the air is pretty heavy. I am very reactive now, probably because of VOCs, formaldehide. I try to open the windows but it.s very cold outside now and it.s not a solution. With windows completly opened I start to feel better. I.m also afraid there is hidden mold although the building was finished in 2023. I also do not smell humid or moldy around in the house. Any advice? Primary symptoms are respiratory, digestive and mental.
Hello! I have to choose between these 2 air purifiers and I need some help to decide. My apartment has 71m2 , but I.ll use it mainly for the bedroom which has 14m2, and open space living room with kitchen , which has a total of 35 m2. I need it mainly for VOC(odors), we do not have dust problems. I have asthma and I get very easily exacerbated by smells and we have some new furniture in the apartment which is not so good for me.
