Suggest Treatment For Asthma
Hi I m a 61 years old female and I had heller myotomy surgery for achalasia 6 years ago. I also have had controlled asthma all my life. I started having breathing problems a couple of years ago and I am at the point now that I have to take prednisone about every two months to keep my lungs clear. Is there anything I can do to prevent the respiratory problems
