My eosinophil count is gone up to 512 while the normal range is between is 150-450..since last 2 months i am having cough, earlier the cough was really bad n i use to vomit as well. After consulting the doctor and having the medicines, its much better now..but i have not got completely rid of it..often i get cold n cough is still there..5 years back i had eczema as well on my neck, it was treated by a dermatologist and was cured. Pls suggest in my current situation where i cold n cough & feel feverish..what needs to be done?

In my opinion you are having allergic cough. Since you have slightly high eosinophil count with past history of eczema favours allergic cough. Please consult pulmonologist and get done PFT and chest x ray. Sometimes small airway obstruction can cause such irritant cough. And this can be picked by PFT in the form of FEV 25 - 75 %.
