No, quite the opposite. Turned my son’s life around.

I’m so pleased for him. Think I’m clutching at straws as to why I feel so unwell! 😞

How long have you been having Xolair? It took about 3 months to make a difference to my son. He’s been on them about 4 years now. Still gets wheezy but otherwise a vast improvement.

I’ve just had 3 months so far. I’m so glad it’s helped your son x

And you are not feeling better? Sorry to hear it if that’s the case. But follow your consultant’s advice. I do hope things improve for you. xx

I thought I was but had this shitty exacerbation. He thinks it’s a blip. Well we’ll see I guess. I trust my consultant 100% so I’m in his hands x

I had the injections part of a drugs trial they had no effect on me, but made my skin feel better

Yes I’ve been on xolair a year hoping I might get off it soon, before xolair I was in hospital every few years this since I started xolair I have been admitted 3 times in 12 months all three asthma attacks needing resus. Had never been in resus previously. My attacks have reduced but the ones I do have are now much more serious and life threatening needing weeks of recovery
