Is anyone being treated with Xolair (http://www.xolair.com) for their asthma?  If so, how's it going?

Excellent drug. Expensive. I was taken 300 mg shots one in each arm every two weeks. By the 3rd month I was feeling asthma free.  Actually lost my rescue inhaler and didn't care. I was still taking Advair 50/500 twice a day, Accolate twice a day, Spirivda (sp) once a day. But, like I said my asthma symptoms had but all disappeared. By the 6th month I was only taking the advair and xolair and felt rejunvenated. Climbing to my second floor apartment with "groceries". One -two hour hikes in the woods. Best deep sleep. But all good things come to an end.  My insurance quit paying and now I am back to square one.  A rescue inhaler is in my pocket at all times.  Back on "all" meds at pre-xolair doses along with the frequent predisone blasts. My groceries are delivered again. I sit on a bench and watch others do the hiking.
