I have been taking 300mgs of Nucala since February 2025. It's doesn't seem to be working as well. I been coughing, wheezing for 3 months, back to using rescue inhaler, nebulizer and prednisone!! Yuk...
Prednisone makes my heart rate and blood sugar, ect... My energy level is good considering I'm supposed to have pneumonia!!!!
So I've had xrays, CT scan with a diagnosis of new nodules in my right lung...Dr said that I have pneumonia as well, He wanted me to go to ER and get admitted for the so called Pneumonia, but I have NO infection or fever, just loose congestion that won't completely go away... I know my body better than the Dr so decided to wait and take the prednisone for a week, so far it seems much better...Somedays are better than others. So my pulmonary Dr wants me to switch me to Dupixent..I've read it has more side effects than Nucala...My question is, if your taking Dupixent, how are you doing and what side effects have you had? Thanks
