Thanks for all the info, . I really appreciate it.

I'm not on Xolair yet, but am very interested in trying it. I don't

have asthma, but I have a bizarre throat problem that seems to be

allergic in nature. I'm going to try a new medication soon, but if

that doesn't help, I'm planning to talk to Dr. P. about trying

Xolair. If he agrees, I hope to at least attempt to get insurance to

cover part of it, but I'm not very optimistic about this since I

don't have asthma. It will definitely break the bank, but it would

be worth it if I could get back even half the life I used to live.

Thanks again,
