Re: Xolair, fatigue and hormones

[Guest guest]

Oh, my. I have been on Xolair since October and have had hot flashes

on and off and generally been much warmer than I usually am. I did

not know if it might be Xolair; the fact that I'd gained a lot of

weight the few months before due to prednisone use; or perhaps

because I turned 36 about that time and might be going through pre-

menopause. (Most women in my family menopause late, but I'm always

the different one.)

I don't know anything about testosterone levels and related side

effects.

I have not experienced fatigue or sweating or any feelings of

weakness. That said, I have always had great levels of fatigue due

to my severe allergies, so nothing short of percoset makes any

difference in that area.

Good luck with Xolair. I can't say enough good things about it.
