Mine is mailed from CVS Specialty Pharmacy. They even sent a nurse to instruct me and watch me give my 1st auto-injections shot. For me, my everyday breathing is pretty decent. I did notice that it boosted my resting O2 saturation rates. They were 92=93 and now they’re 94-95%. I don’t FEEL different but am happy. I do notice I don’t get an exacerbation when I have things that might normally trigger one, like if my POC malfunctions or I’m having a rough day due to other things.

@hicopd were you on oxygen before you started taking the Nucala? I was on it 24/7 but after my first shot I found that I could sit without using the oxygen. And since my second shot I am starting to be able to move around "slowly" and in "short spirts" without the oxygen. Hoping that I will eventually be able to get off the oxygen all together.
