Chrug Straus syndrome is not a hereditary condition

This can progress very rapidly usually causing mutiple organ involvement including kidneys and nervous system along with asthma and high eosinophils

It is unlikely that you have symptoms for so long without any diagnosis and a damage

Please do let me know if you have any other question
