There was a question on this topic but it is 9 years old so I am wondering if anyone has any more recent experience/thoughts on the procedure.
I have an asthma element but my main problem is dynamic hyperinflation. At least that is what my pulmonologist thinks is a major cause of my severe exercise intolerance.
He thinks I might be a candidate for this procedure. There is a lot of discussion to be had before we consider that route, and other things to try, but since he has flagged it as a possibility I am starting to do some research.
They describe it as minimally invasive, but it still involves three procedures, separated by three weeks, and lung symptoms will be worse until they (hopefully) get better. So it would take up two months of my life and once lung tissue is burned away it ain't coming back (I assume!). Lots to think about.
