A member asked:

Can heart surgery, mitral valve repair, 1 yr on have an affect on peak flow 425 .mild asthma past taking 2x40 mg propranolol day/can gerd affect it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Prpranolol: can cause flare up of your asthma and should really not be used in an asthmatic patient. Isuugest a call to the prescribing physician. GERD can also aggravate your ashtma- you need to have your physician address BOTH issues.
