Apparently, there are these breathing exercises you can do that seem to strengthen the lungs and bronchial system. Pretty wild.
I won't be taking Bryn off his steroids in favor of this -- yet! Until he can tell me how he's feeling and/or use a peak flow meter so we can actually see how well he's breathing, we'll probably keep him where he is. After all, he's been doing pretty well on the reduced dosage of Flovent.
Maybe we'll even be able to take him off it next summer. Keep your fingers crossed.
