"I have had 5 injections for asthma. I think it helped, but the back pain, chest pain, itchy torso, itching scalp are unbearable at times. In addition, I developed a urinary tract infection and diverticulitis. GI doctor says the chest pain may be esophageal. I have had chest x-ray, chest scan, heart CT scan - all show nothing unusual. But I don't know what I will do when asthma symptoms recur because the pain is hard to live with every day."

"No issues in the injection area. Nothing immediate or that day of the shot. Headaches, but not until the next day or two. It may not be related to Nucala. I've had the 3rd shot now, and I feel a little nausea, but it's been two days."

"I'm from Argentina and have had asthma since I was 8. I started using Nucala 2 years ago. It took at least 8 to 9 months to have an effect on my body, but it was amazing. Before Nucala, I used to nebulize 6 or 7 times a day and would wake up at night at 3 am because I needed a nebulization. I even had a nebulizer with a battery to use on trips, but now I have it stored away. Nucala changed my life. It's a pen, which I press to my tummy, and after hearing one click, 20 seconds later, I hear a second click, and that's it. I use it once a month and have had no side effects."

"I would not give this to an elderly person. Side effects far out weigh any benefit. FDA should remove approval on this med."
