Biologics

[Alice70]

Hi I am a little worried because I am using three different biologic Denosumab for osteoporosis xolair (Omalizumab ) for chronic urticaria hope ive spelt that right and Adalimumab for Rheaumatiod I spoke to my dermatologist Friday he said he was happy to leave me on xolair while having other biologics ,I don't feel to happy about it ,is anyone else using more than one biologic I would feel safer if I new I wasn't the only one

We re not qualified to answer that,…. but hopefully you rheumatologist is. If you don’t trust his opinion ask your GP to refer you to another rheumy.

I hear your concerns about being on 3 biologics, but if the cocktail is working and few side effects….I imagine regular blood tests and being careful to avoid infections are important.

It’s very helpful reading different experiences of living with inflammatory arthritis.

Thank you Ankspon I have got blood tests coming up yes I think you are right my bloods should tell them if there is anything wrong ,its not that I won't other people to be on more than one biolic it just that it is reassuring if someone else is like me and are ok
