"I have been receiving Prolastin-C IV for the last 2 years. I can tell a 100% difference in my breathing and stamina. I had to miss a couple of treatments because of insurance issues, and I could tell I had labored breathing issues, could not get my breath, and I was extremely tired."

"I have been on this since 2005 and have had little to no bad reactions from it. I guess that I am one of the lucky ones, as my wife is a registered nurse and will give me my transfusions at home. However, my brother passed at 47, and he was on the same regimen."

"I was diagnosed with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency in 2010. I currently receive weekly infusions via a surgically implanted port. I infuse at our local cancer center. I have attempted home health and was horrified by their lack of knowledge and experience for running an IV, and none of the five different people assigned to me took the time to access the online training on medication preparation. Side effects: extreme tiredness, feel drained."
