Prolastin - Who Is Getting This Treatment?
I am Alpha-1 ZZ diagnosed and would like to know if anyone else has been prescribed augmentation therapy once a week. If so, how long have you been doing this,
and have you gotten positive results? Any negative side effects?
I am zz and am having infusions weekly......been doing it for 3 or 4 years, before that it was monthly, but that's not good. It needs to b weekly. U must have a really good nurse who comes to your house and is knowledgeable. Otherwise it is hell. I had a horrible first experience, but after that, everything went great! Feel free to ask me any questions. Also, I am on FB.
I'm recently diagnosed and getting prolastin weekly. I've only had 4 infusions so far, so I haven't noticed any change yet. A nurse comes to my house each week, and does a great job with my wiggly veins. No side effects either.
I built furniture for 17 years & cars till Feb. of 2012. I worked at Subaru.
I am MZ They wanted me to start it too. I have 15% lung capacity left & after insurance pays it will cost me 2 thousand a month. Have not heard alot of positive things about it. Every one i have talked to has 70-80% of there lung fuction. I wonder how they new they had bad lungs. I didn't know until it was too late.
I have a friend who is a ZZ and has been getting infusion therapy for over 25 years. She's doing very well; but without it probably wouldn't be here at all.
