Re: Spring time allergies!

[Guest guest]

I have had a little more shortness of breath and runny nose this spring.  In

fact I endured about two weeks of an allergic cough, but did not have to call

the doctor or take anything extra.  However, in past years, I would be

suffering with a severe sinus infection and cough that would be hard to get rid

of.  But since xolair, I weather most allergen peaks with no or little

symptoms.

 

The ash and oak have been very high here...particularly the oak, so bad that

cars are a yellowish green instead of their true color!  And you can see it in

the air at a distance!  And we have been having high winds and no rain!  So I

stay in as much as possible....but still have to get out to take care of

business!  I just use my nasal sprays and my eye drops.  That's the extent so

far of my allergy battles....thanks to xolair!

Ask your doctor about Skellaxin. It might be right for you.

I had side effects and interactions with other medications with the Skellaxin

and also Neurontin. Lyrica put weight on me WORSE than prednisone and didn't

work.

The pain clinic wants to give me another STEROID shot! Good grief!

I am making an appointment with a physical therapist today.

Now, back on topic to xolair.....

How is everyone with these horrible springtime allergies?

I dread to think what I would be without xolair!
