I was wondering if anyone else was on both and noticed improvement.
The doctor specializes in autoimmune, allergies and asthma.
I am given the drug as part of a drug trial.
Something to do with mast cells, a type of white blood cell that has something to do with allergic reactions with no trigger, idiopathic.
“Mast cell autoimmune triggering leads to local edema (swelling), warmth, redness, and the attraction of other inflammatory cells to the site of release. It also depolarizes nerve endings (leading to itching and pain).”
The study is for patients with mast cells that do not function properly and are hyperresponsive.
This was the first loading dose and it hasn’t done a thing for the hives.
But I think maybe it boosted the Entivio, because after a year things have definitely improved!
