storibrown 36 Posted January 19, 2016 Has anyone had this procedure done specially to improve asthma and or to aid in reducing the use of steroids such as prednisone? If so did you see any improvement? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jhclikesshopping@gmail.com 285 Posted January 22, 2016 @storibrown- before surgery I had really bad asthma. Every winter I would have a flair that would cause me to go on prednisones. Fact many of them brought trips to the ER to. Now that surgeries over my lung capacity went from 50% to 80%. With steroids I get to almost hundred percent capacity. So I still have to take my meds but it's so much better than it was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
