I have had fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue for many yeras and seems to be getting worse.My recent blood work shows my eosinophil level is at 25.8%.

Hi welcome to health care magic...

Your eosinophils are very much high....

Cause for that should be searched like.....
-asthma
-pulmonary eosinophilia
-skin disorder
-parasitic infection
-allergic rhinitis, sinusitis
-hodgkin lymphoma like malignancy etc...

So physical examination, detail history, lymph node palpation, Spirometry, chest x ray etc like investigation done and treated accordingly.....

For allergic inflammation Allegra LC like drug given

Take care

Hope this will help

Allergic specialist or pulmonologist can be consulted ...If needed physician can consulted for general examination
