Xolair stoppped working for me - Hives

[Guest guest]

I was one of the few people who was approved to get Xolair injections

for chronic urticaria (hives). It worked for a year and half, giving

me my life back, but the hives and angiodema (swelling) returned in

full force. I had suffered with debilitating full body hives for over

a year until Xolair came along. After my third shot, I stopped hiving

until December of 2007 (I still had occasional red spots show up

during exercise). Then, out of thin air, I started to become

unresponsive to Xolair. I'm a 29 year old male and have dealt with

this autoimmune condition for three years. To have my one saving

grace taken away from me kind of leaves me hopeless; so I'm just venting.
