I was just diagnosed with a severe case of AERD(Samter's Triad) I actually diagnosed myself while in the ICU in the hospital after another bout of exacerbation. I started Googling my symptoms because I have nasal polyps, asthma, and can’t take NSAID’S. I’ve been suffering from nasal polyps for over 15 years. I had two nasal surgeries and the my nasal polyps came back with a vengeance. My ENT Doctor has prescribed me Dupixcent. She feels that my body needs a rest
@lalameneelyfredrich2093 It’s it an overwhelming experience. When the doctors don’t know why you keep crashing with respiratory failure and all the time they thinks it’s your heart. So they give you aspirin not knowing that’s what causing your issue. Thank God for me being pro-active and a advocate about my health. All my doctors was amazed that I found out about AERD and brought it to their attention. I’ve been on Dupixent for 14 days and I can finally breathe. No nasal obstruction and my polyps has shrunken🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
@@sabaraina-h4d I am on Dupixent and it has shrunken my polyps and I can breath. I take my second injection tomorrow. I’m so nervous because I have to inject myself😱😱😱
If you have nasal polyps with sinusitis... It's likely your Vitamin D level. 3 research papers: 1) Vitamin D deficiency is associated with increased human sinonasal fibroblast proliferation in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps 2) Chronic rhinosinusitis with polyposis and serum vitamin D levels 3) The Correlation Between Vitamin D Deficiency and Chronic Rhinosinusitis: A Systematic Review That's the sunshine hormone, 40% UNFILTERED skin exposure 15min a day for 3x a week is most effective. UVB is best between 10am-2pm, but then go back to using sunblock! Diet is much harder to absorb, and certain food sources are not very biologically available

Shame dupixent is horrendously expensive. If no health insurance you are stuffed. No pun intended.
Pun intended.
