New Pulmonologist on my Case in MI

I have a new Pulmonologist in MI that is going to coordinate my care along with the doctor in McAllen. We now have Dr. Farra.

I like his approach to treatment. He immediately increased by dosage on Advair, and he wants to start low dosage Prednisolone for 6 days to see if there is any symptomatic relief. I do like the fact that he is being aggressive and trying something and not waiting another 4 weeks like the doctors in McAllen were doing.
