apparently things can vary

[Guest guest]

I recently learned of a patient who is extremely heavy (thanks to

prednisone of course) and has an unbelieveably high IgE count (well

above what is listed as accepted for taking Xolair) who is taking a

higher dose than either Doug or I. (Doug and I are taking the

highest dose one is " supposed " to get). This person sees a specialist

who was involved in the clinical trials or something like that. So

apparently if one works hard enough with one's doctor and/or

insurance company, exceptions can be made and different dosing or

other things can be taken into consideration.

Here's to a healthy new year for all of us.
