Guest guest Posted December 2, 2006 Report Share Posted December 2, 2006 I started seeing definite improvement at about 4 months (I really noticed I was better just before 3 months, but I had been in one of those sick cycles, so it could have been just the fact that I was coming out of that cycle that I felt better) and saw improvement in all my allergic symptoms by the end of the first year on Xolair. I have had setbacks since, but only one of those was serious and that was due to long term mold exposure. I get the maximum dose every two weeks. Most of us react to chemicals and smoke probably because our lungs are hypersensitive due to our allergic asthma experiences. If we see improvement in chemical or smoke sensitivity, it is probably as our lungs lose some of that hypersensitivity once we stop having allergic asthma episodes so often. I have not had a lot of improvement in my sense of smell. Probably because my sinuses are fairly messed up from years of inflammation due to allergy. > > > > > > Anyone taking Xolair for Allergic Broncopulmonary Apergilliosis? > > My > > > Dr. recomends that I should with prednisone, advair and singular. > > > > > > thanks > > > > > > Dick > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 the head of the nih says that the evil candy can wreck the immune system which in turn makes us much more sensitive. it creates thrush, etc. what was your mold exposure? I lived in a 56 year old house for far too long. then I had a 15 pound tabby cat. pyle456 <coachmac@...> wrote: I started seeing definite improvement at about 4 months (I really noticed I was better just before 3 months, but I had been in one of those sick cycles, so it could have been just the fact that I was coming out of that cycle that I felt better) and saw improvement in all my allergic symptoms by the end of the first year on Xolair.
