Eagles Syndrome at food and medicine intolerance

Have you guys tried the OTC H1/H2 blockers (histamine blockers)? I started with Zyrtec and Pepcid. Immunologist doubled what I was taking to 2 zyrtec and up to 3 a day and 40 mg pepcid. Still no luck on getting script for next level up which are stabilizers.

I do use a DAO enzyme (breaks down histamine in digestive track (can’t recall if stomach only) …prior to eating. Current one is NaturDAO. Will keep you updated as I progress through figuring it out.

Did you use that for calming down acid reflux ? :thinking:

No, it was prescribed (even though over the counter) as a histamine blocker. If taken 1/2 hour before food or 2 hours after (I believe) should not affect acid and blocks histamine. This is part of determining if I have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS).
