If medicine fails, bronchial thermoplasty could help treat severe asthma.

Omg. I’m so excited. I have Asthma and last night, I went to the doctors. Unknowingly, I fell asleep. My breathing rate was at 87. Most normal people sleep with like a 98. I’m having to take 4 inhalers every 4 hours. If my family can afford it, I might need this. Thanks for reading 💖

Its about time! Being asthmatic for 47 years these medical breakthroughs are rare. If they can help peeps breathe better Im all for it. Never take a breath for granted🙏🏼

I'm more concerned about shoving a tube down my windpipe. Can you still breathe while the procedure is happening?

Sadly I’m not sure how bad my asthma is. I rarely have an attack but when I do it scares the life out of me. I seems seasonal. I hope this and more ways to possibly cure it become available I wish you all long happy health to my fellow asthma sufferers.

This is a palliative procedure only... inhalers will be required even after the procedure...

I saw this and freaked out and clicked cuz I don’t have asthma attacks often but as soon as the air turns dry I start coughing all the time and have to use my inhaler every 4 hours, even sometimes in the middle of the night. and sometimes when it starts to wear off I cough so I hard I get the worst headaches. I’ve gotten like 4 of them in the last week.

Edit: but this looks terrifying like.... akwkekdmdnmsmaowj yea maybe later
