Does anyone know if Xolair will help with nasal polyps.  I had sinus surgury

about 10 years ago and the polyps have grown back, making it difficult to

breath.

Thanks for any input.

I really can not believe the relief I feel (literally) now! I have not

been able to run or even walk fast in the past 16 mos but now I feel

great! My conditioning is extremely low but that is to be expected. I

feel like a could walk/bike for days and hopefully, run again soon. Has

anyone else experienced a 180* with Xolair? I would be interested to

hear your story.

Sincerely,

Chris

I had my nasal septum straightened in 1995 and it helped a lot,

especially from getting larengitis so much.

it sounds as if you are one of the lucky ones.  my own personal experience with

xolair has been complicated because i also have copd and bronchiactesis.  since

my ige levels have gone down so much lately, i was told to hold off on my

injection.  well, i did.  and yesterday was the 4th day of missing my dose and i

almost died in the e r.  i wonder if anyone else has felt awful when they had to

miss a few days due to shipment disruption or holidays, etc?  i refused the

injection of 120 units of solumedrol and  had them release me from the e r. i

came home and took my injection as quickly as i could get it to mix and although

i am understandably very weak today, i can at least breathe much much better.

if you can run soon, that is awesome.  exercise strengthens the lungs and the

breathing muscles. i would say to keep your inhaler with you out of an abundance

of caution.

i am so happy you have made a 180.  i needed to read a success story today.

My doctor says there is no reason to test my IgE b/c we are all

constantly making new IgE and he said I am an especially good IgE

producer and will probably need Xolair for the rest of my life.

I have had two disruptions due to insurance malfunctions and both

times have seen an increase in symptoms when I didn't get my Xolair.

I can miss one dose ok, but not two or more....
