Well that’s it first Mepo injection yesterday. I’m so happy to have the chance of being given this. So many drugs still high FENO and feeling ill. Let’s see how it goes. I have to say my asthma clinic at our local hospital is amazing and I continue to receive excellent support and treatment. Now fingers crossed 🤞

All the best on it ...didn't work for me so now I am on next stage of reslizumab, my feno remains high and still only been able to reduce pred from 40mg to 30mg...

Every treatment works differently on everyone so good luck ......x

Good luck - I have been on it since Jan. My steroids are reduced but my Feno is still high (80) sadly my days of jogging are now over.

Good luck Margerita. I hope it works for you. I have been on Mepo for 14 months now and it has changed my life dramatically. No more exacerbations, no more oral steroids and I have returned to full time work 🙏. I also have a very supportive consultant and asthma nurse. Keep me posted 😁
