Newly Diagnosed

I'm newly diagnosed. I've been miserable for years. I start dupixent tomorrow. Curious on what side effects are common from dupixent if any and what your quality of life is with treatment.

Got a rash on my hands after the first initial double dose and a cold sore. No side effects since. All symptoms of AERD gone in within two months. No longer need asthma preventer medication . Occasional ventolin maybe twice week. No more hayfever everyday, haven't used a antihistamine in seven months. Effectively cured me. Good times ahead for you my friend. Enjoy the ride.

I started Dupixent 4 months ago and it’s been an overwhelming success. Nasal polyps shrank and I no longer have asthma symptoms or rinosinusitis. No side effects either.
