I just got started on Xolair shots - a humanized monoclonal anitbody that's designed for people with moderate to severe asthma. It prevents IgE, which is found in high levels in very allergic people, from attaching to mast cells thereby reducing or eliminating allergic symptoms.
Is any one else on this or contemplating? I've been to another related board about this too.
I've often wondered if severe allergies plus asthma (and affecting digestion) don't have some impact on one's cognitive processing including mood but most of what I've read seems to deny this. Not sure I'm in agreeement though. Anyone else have experience or insight along these lines?
