Guest guest Posted July 19, 2009 Report Share Posted July 19, 2009 Hey all! Great to see so much activity on the site. I was a frequent participant in the past, and still read the posts from time to time. What a great clearing-house for information. Thanks Doug and Addy for keeping this site going. I was prompted to review the postings after reading the concerns about Xolair and a possible link to heart attacks and strokes. Like some of you, I have been on Xolair since 2003 and have had only good results from the treatment. I have not had any noticable complications with my heart, and if anything, I am certainly in better health than I was six years ago because I am able to do so many more things than before. One thing I seem to have noticed is that when I have my monthly Xolair injections, they don't seem to be as " potent " as they used to be, nor do they last as long. I get one injection per month, and by the time I am ready for my next injection, believe me I am ready. Not struggling like before, mind you, but still not as clear as I seem to remember myself being several years ago. Just curious if anyone has had similar results. Thanks.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Hey, Greg, welcome back! I hope your boys are doing well! I've always felt the need for a refill by the time my next dosage comes around. It's more noticeable when there's an overabundance of something I'm really allergic to - e.g., tree pollen. Take care, Addy > > Hey all! Great to see so much activity on the site. I was a frequent participant in the past, and still read the posts from time to time.
