I've been lucky enough to receive this treatment this year. Benralizumab really helped my eospinillic asthma a great deal for the first few months but I've had a dip since. I think it's because of the bronchiectasis and recurrent haemophillus infections as well as my ABPA that has been the issue here though. Perhaps my asthma would've been much more of a problem had I not been fortunate enough to receive this treatment.

They are giving it to more and more severe asthmatics now. I know I'm lucky to have it. Hopefully it will help pave the way for more new treatments for everyone.
