Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Is anyone using xolair with cough variant asthma? I am rather new to this and after a really bad three months of 'new' cough variant asthma that is not responding the way my dr wants it to -- he has recommended xolair. I go in for my allergy testing tomorrow (since my body is breaking out in constant hives for some unknown reason) but have already qualified for it based on IGE level and the unresponsiveness of my asthma. Also the inhaled steroids are causing a fungus on my vocal cords (nice hoarse voice for the past two months) and as long as I use the inhalers my vocal cords will be 'fried' but without them I cough continously which sets me into tacacardia and other 'fun' things. Also need to get off the prednisone. Been on it for 3 months and between the weight gain and the mood swings... not a good time. This will be my third time of attempting to wean off it. I guess my question is is anyone has had sucess with cough variant asthma and xolair? And to think asthma problems started with a home remodel... bummer!
