Question
Due to low immunize system that leads to frequent infections that don't like to be cleared up easily, Chiropractic Doctor I have and do see, said there is something with C1 and placement to skull that is part of the problem, I don't remember the term he used, I have now become sensitive to augementin, and Ketek. I don't want to become sensitive everything. Is there anything that can be done from eastern medicine side to reverse this or prevent it from happening again to another medication?
A good thing from do Chiropractor adjustments my IGE level has drop to non allegry level first time in years. Which don't help to get a different type of medication that might help, but I get less allergy issues/ asthma attacks. If I only my immunize system would respond and start producing antibodies like it should.  

Answer
Hello B Green,

     Unfortunately once your body developes sensitivity to drugs there is nothing you can do.  Through your diet,nutrition,herbs, and exercise you can build your immune system.  You may want to see a doctor who specializes in herbology and nutrition to work with you and your other doctors.

Hope all goes well,
