Could recent weightloss have had a negative impact on my asthma?

weightloss

I’m not, and never have been, overweight for my height and I’ve struggled for several years with forms of disorded eating. Following a chest infection around Easter, my asthma worsened considerably, but it has not improved again as it usually would have. I’m wondering if a concurrent weight-loss of around a stone might have had an effect on my asthma.

I’ve tried to research this myself, but a Google search only brings up reams of stuff on being overweight with asthma.
