I was under the impression that this therapy could take up to a year

to have any major effect. Much like the allergy shots that people

take. I was also told that it was incredibly expensive, like $12,000

a year. And that it was doubtful insurance companies would pay for it,

since it was considered sort of " experimental " .

can expect seeing improvement? And once you reach a point of being

information they gave you.

The doctor says it takes a few months. People have seen relief at

different times.

Greyskr,

Since the FDA approved Xolair in JUne, it is no longer considered

experimental. I am one of the lucky ones who's insurance pays all

but a 35.00 monthy copy.

Hi Jeanne!

>I see my asthma Dr. every 3 months

>and I always ask him when I can quit.I'm sure all of us do

This is the problem with this Asthma medicines I think.

we are not able to attack the core of the problem.

even steroid really does nothing.probably we have to

look for something which modifies the disease or

gives the complete cure.preventer is something really

useless I think and this symptomatic medicines really does

nothing.but sometimes when you change a place or suddenly

you become somuch happy or due to some reason sometimes

people gets cure temporarily I think.I hope suddenly

some miracle happens in your life and your next visit,

your short,bony,egoistic doctor says that you do not need anymore

drug.well for me,I dont believe in miracles,atleast

I know its never going to happen in my life but it doesnt

mean that it wont happen in others life.let me

try singulair.be well!

Many Greetings,

Senthil Kumar.S.

ps : Infact this line made me to feel so much

" I always ask him when I can quit " ! I am not

mentioning about medicines though and ofcourse

not life but something else,even I dont know,

I think I have to quit something,what is that?

anyway thanks for making me more confuse!
