Re: Well, with the weather, I have had a slight setback

[Guest guest]

Doug, I'm sorry to hear you are having a setback. But you're right,

a short increased burst like this is preferable to the other

possibilities. Joyce and Amy, I hope you and yours see benefits from

our favorite med soon. Greg, you'll get those peak flows up. If

nothing else soon you'll have TWO kids to run after--that'll get you

going!

I was almost two weeks late getting my last dose. (I get 3 shots

every two weeks.) My husband has been gone a lot with varsity high

school baseball and I didn't want to give myself my shots when he

wasn't here. Then when I went to prepare my shots on Sunday, I

discovered that the specialty pharmacy hadn't put in a second vial of

SWFI like they usually do and I'd already thrown the other one out.

Monday I called the nurse and she said, no problem come pick up a

vial, but I couldn't get there until Wednesday.

I definitely started on the down slope once I hit three weeks since

the last shot and yesterday before I got home I was really heading in

to trouble. I nearly reached for the nebulizer and some pred, but I

did some deep breathing exercises and went to bed. Felt really good

this morning, after three days of incredible fatigue and various

allergic symptoms.

I definitely love my Xolair.

Take care all,

Addy
