Guest guest Posted February 27, 2011 Report Share Posted February 27, 2011 I asked her about the question of joint pain and this was her response: " Hello all, I have seen postings about joint pain and Xolair. As head nurse for Xolair in a Specialty Pharmacy and tracking each & every person on it, I never heard joint pain from any one I spoke to. Repetative motion causes joint pain, Arthritis of any kind does also. Being on prednisone and now off could be the culprit. Most of us are heavier than the norm due to the prednisone and extra weight causes joints to work harder. So, see your physician, have them draw labs for arthritis, take x-rays of affected areas & formulate treatment plans. I highly doubt there is any correlation beween Xolair & joint pain. Warm compresses never hurt & will help the pain. Some people prefer cold compresses. Hope this helps Pat " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
