People near me go allergic

Hi,

For the past 4 years, i had been searching the reason for the problem I have. People near me go allergic (hardly blowing nose and feeling nasal congestion). I have done some test Gastroscopy and allergy tests and CT Scan.

Gastroscopy revealed GERD (reflux disease)
Allegy tests revealed nothing
CT Scan revealed sinus infection

Doctors say nothing is wrong but I see this symptoms on people near me. What could be the problem?

It very precarious and disgusting and so please help.

Do you use lots of soap when you shower? If you take a hot shower with lots of soap, some soap could remain in your pores. They when you sweat it gets sent into the air causing irritation to others.

Definitely No for any allergens in my body. I could not able to bear to go near people who uses strong perfumes.

Do you wear perfume/scented lotion/scented deodorant? Do you have pets whose hair might be on your clothes? Do you use strong detergents/fabric softeners on your clothes? Work in a pesticide factory? Garden a lot, getting covered in pollen or mold spores? I would look into all possible allergens you might have on your body or clothes.

Hi,

My doctors (I visited scores) don't agree with this. They say simply it is not possible that others can go allergic bcos of me. But everyday I see these things happen & go crazy. Is sinus is an air borne infection?

TIA,
Holy

What the tests have shown is this is not due to allergy.  However, these symptoms could be due to a chronic sinusitis, since you already had a positive CT scan.  That is the most likely diagnosis and one that should be pursued by your doctor, until the CT scan is normal.
