Join us for the second episode of You, Me, And HAE! Our host, Debbie, welcomes Kelly, a fellow RUCONEST Patient, as they talk about their experiences of living with hereditary angioedema (HAE). They discuss identifying swell triggers and staying prepared for an HAE swell. Kelly is also joined by Dr. Jack Eades, an allergist/immunologist who focuses on managing HAE. Together, they highlight the importance of regularly talking to your doctor about your HAE. Lastly, Kelly shares her personal journey of using RUCONEST® (C1 esterase inhibitor [recombinant]), an on-demand HAE treatment for people over the age of 12, to manage acute swells and discusses how RUCONEST helps her get back to the things that matter.
