Start the discussion

Have open conversations with your specialist.

Doing everything you can for your HES and it still doesn’t feel like enough? It’s time to have an open and honest conversation with your specialist. Here are some things to bring up:

  1. Talk about your flares. Tell your specialist about all the times your HES symptoms have gotten worse and ask if blood testing has shown an increase in blood eosinophil levels. This could mean a change in your HES therapy could help.
  2. Mention how you’re feeling. Let your specialist know about the times you’ve noticed your symptoms more. HES affects people differently, and symptoms can affect any part of the body.
  3. Discuss HES therapy. You have options when it comes to HES therapy. Ask your specialist about NUCALA and if it may be right for you.

Once a month. At home. On YOUR time.
