Guest guest Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 , Welcome to the group. If you have any read back posts, you have learned that that for some of us, Xolair took some time to work. It took over 6 months before I saw any relief. My doctor told me that sometimes it takes up to a year for some people, others see some relief a lot faster. I have been on it since 2003 and I am doing GREAT I have not had to have any Prednisone since September of this year!!!!!!! Glad to have you aboard Doug Group founder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 Hi Welcome. I am also a . I have been on Xolair since Oct 2004 and really begain seeing a serious improvement about 4 weeks ago. I was on a slow taper off pred since I started Xolair, without my condition worsening and have now been off pred for 3 weeks and I can still breathe. I actually have been able to work in the yard again, even with tree pollen starting. It really depends on the person, some people see results sooner than others, some it takes 6 mos to a year. Don't give up if you don't see results right away, it is really worth the wait. -- - In , " " <cascadiaclimber@y...> wrote: > > > Hi all. New member here.
