Blog Post CommentAfter having asthma literally since the day I was born, having it uncontrolled for 33 years and after having been put on a ventilator and having my heart stop for 7 minutes with my last attack my Dr put me on Nucala and to say it has been life changing is completely true.

Blog Post Comment❤️I’ve had severe asthma all my life. My pulmonary doctor marrow it down to allergies that were triggering my asthma. So now I take Xolair twice a month and I only take trelegy twice a day, no emergency inhaler needed. My life now, is way better!

Blog Post Comment❤️👍Good information, but talking with doctors is not as easy as it sounds. It seems that asthma doctors prefer different treatments for their patients and they are not very receptive to comments from patients. It is especially difficult if one has had a good doctor for a long time and has to switch to a new doctor, they do not like to continue the same treatment the patient was getting even if successful. It is difficult because there is not and end to asthma treatments.

Blog Post Comment👍Wonderful post!! Thanks for sharing. Would you have any research articles to suggest about eosinophilic asthma patients when they withdraw from the biologics? Asthma is a life threatening disease, and many patients are not aware of it and do not have conditions to treat it.

Blog Post CommentMy son's doctor wants to start Xolair for my 12 yo who has severe asthma and allergies to Dust, Peanuts and Treenuts.After the recent blood tests he has concluded that my son has both allergic and eosinophilic asthma(Eosinophills = 700s range in the test),I understand that Xolair will help both his allergies and eosinophillic asthma but I am also a little apprehensive because of the black box warning for anaphylaxis that Xolair has ....any advice !
