Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Posted July 19, 2006 Addy, I just came in from mowing my lawn. It is 101 degrees here in NW ARkansas and the humidity is 67%. Asthma isn't the problem. IT'S THE HEAT! (GRIN) Doug Quote
Guest guest Posted July 19, 2006 Report Posted July 19, 2006 Doug, How long did it take for the xolair to work so well? I am on the 10 month mark and this last week has been as bad as prior but it is humid and hot here as well.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 I cut the grass yesterday on a hot, humid day and came in feeling fine. Pre-Xolair I would have been sick as a dog. pyle456 <coachmac@...> wrote: I worked in the yard for 45 minutes. So far, NO symptoms. It's still early, but considering the fact that I didn't start wheezing right away while raking grass, even to do that is a HUGE improvement over pre-Xolair. 'Course, the down side is my husband will now want me to do yard work and I may no longer have a good excuse! TAke care, all of you, Addy --------------------------------- How low will we go?

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 Karin, It took a full year for me. I believe it took that long for Doug as well.

I was just about to quit taking xolair when it finally started working. Now, 3 years later, I have the full effect and it's great. Remember, some people can get relief in a few shots, but with most of us it takes time. Each person is different. Trust your doctor's advice. I'm glad I did Doug Quote
