Guest guest Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 , I am currently getting monthly Xolair shots and it has worked so well for me. I have Sapters and chronic asthma. There wasn't anything that helped me but Xolair. My asthma is completely manageable due to this drug. Hope this helps. > > Hi everyone... > looks like some interesting threads here lately!
