the THROAT about my condition

I had been baldado and partially baldado on and off the last few weeks. After two rounds of antibiotics, a blood test, a x-ray (inhale, deep breath, hold your breath...click), two bottles of that cough mixture, a bottle of banana flavored cough mixture with ventolin (I was shaking for a few days), more than 24 lozenges, two bottles of Pei Pa Koa and A LOT of missed meet ups, the doctor tells me that it is not an infection, but an allergy.

(Okay, so the medication / treatment enumeration is irrelevant--besides the two rounds of antibiotics.)

What am I allergic to? She can't tell. I have to observe she says.

Dr. House, help me.

TPT

When inquired about the condition of a friend who has been in the ICU for a long time, I was advised that she had TPT.

When I googled, this is what I hit.

TPT (condition): A thumb deformity where the thumb looks like a finger - it has three bones instead of the normal two. The hand appears to have five fingers instead of 4 fingers and a thumb.

I am pretty sure I got the wrong acronym.
