Anyone with COPD taking Nucala (mepolizumab)? How did it help?

See my pulumnary in a couple weeks and i think gonna ask him about nucala . We tried it one time he asked me what i thought i told home i couldn’t tell a difference but they didn’t have anymore in that day so he went right for dupixent. Sometime i feel very exhausted from it for several days, and short of breath to. Like it take 3/4 days until out get better after the shot

@snoots Nucala and Dupixent treat different types of issues from my understanding. This is what I was told Nucala treats:
An eosinophilic phenotype is a visible disease trait defined by high numbers of eosinophils, which are a type of white blood cell that causes swelling and tissue damage. It most often appears in severe respiratory conditions like Eosinophilic Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

@snoots
Any side effects you can tell with dupixnent? Tell any difference at all? Mine is talking about Nucala, so I am sure he will try that first. If you change over let me know if you can feel any changes. I really struggle with breathing just walking to bathroom and back. Only about 40 feet, round trip.
