Good day all ! i just wanted ro say xolair has been a god send for me . i have hypothyroidism , autoimmune disease, ( hashimotos, and another ) i have adrenal insufficiency. No one could figure out what was wrong with me. i was lucky to find an immunologist who knew exactly what it is. i have stayed up many nights in pain with no relief for over q year .My doc did inform me , for my treatment to work , my tsh and t3 levela would have to be controlled . i am so happy xolair has been a life saver ! i take it with a few other prescribed meds . works wonders for me ! so happy

    Hi

    I too have thyroid disease and arthritus and the dr believes these caused my hives.. I have been on xolair for over 2 years and do not have any hives but occasssionally I do get very itchy and then take a hydrozine or benedryl.. I did try to stop the xolair but the hives came back so I will not be stopping it again.. So glad it works for you as well
