Anyone have allergic asthma? I have been dealing with asthma for about 20 years. My pulmonologist said I have severe persistant allergic asthma. I just started twice monthly xolair injections yesterday. might have to be on them the rest of my life...but am trying a 6 month trail first. Just wondering if anyone else has this and is also doing the injections?

Didn't work for me. I tried for 6 months. It works great for some, hope it helps you!

Side effects for me: hair loss x 3 months then it slacked off. Transient nausea for three days, not after first three. Bone pain, just a couple days.
