My pulomanry doctor believes i have eosinophilic asthma and he recommend xolair injections. I am on a good number of medicine

Singular, Albuterol inhailer, symbicort, levialbuterol nebulizer solution, pulmicort nebulizer solution, trelegy,  i am prone to bad chest colds that evolve into bronchitis, i am on Prednisone more than 4 times a year and antibiotics. 

Doctor says xolair injections will help and im open to see if it will help. The concern i have is the side effect of getting anaphylaxis episode. It says its common and can happen. I sondo need to get worse and im very nervous about taking this medicine considering the side effects.

Has anyone taken this medication? Have you experienced anaphylaxis? Or am i worrying too much? How does it make you feel?

@Hidden username my story is very similar to yours. I did try it and it helped, however I had a reaction. My muscles started hurting, I was dizzy and shaking. Not only that but I still have a redish mark at the injection sites.

I was on Nacala for over a year with no improvement. I had no side effects other than nausea, headaches and sleepiness for the following 12-24 hrs. I am currently on Fasenra for the past 5 months and there seems to be a slight reduction in hospitalizations. I have had no serious side effects associated with either of those injections

Hi, I too have asthma and on many medications. I have been using Xolair for about 12 years now. I have much insight into Xolair and would like to share at another time, but soon. I am not feeling well but I will respond.
