How would a do differently approach my asthma treatment than an md. my doctors want to pump me with steroids and im afraid of the long term affects.

"pump you full"???: Three decades ago we had little more than intravenous or oral steroids that went everywhere in the body & side effects were a problem. Today these forms are used in acute events, but most are delivered as inhalers directly to the tissue where needed.These inhaler steroids are metabolized locally & allow an asthma patient to get a years worth of treatment for what they used to take in a week.
