Pulmonologist 's  Response
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
You are having high eosinophil count (eosinophilia) and breathlessness in night.
These are commonly seen with asthma.
So better to consult pulmonologist and get done
1. Clinical examination of respiratory system
2. PFT (pulmonary function test).
PFT will not only diagnose asthma but it will also tell you about severity of the disease.
And treatment of asthma is based on severity only.
You will mostly improve with inhaled bronchodilator (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone).
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.
