Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have high eosinophil count. There are many causes of high eosinophil count. They are allergy, hypersensitivity, asthma, parasitic infection, etc.
If you have already gone through allergy test. Then you should search for other cause. Go for chest x ray, look for any patasitic infection in blood. You may have hypersensitivity problems. So take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
