Does a Patient's Physical Health/Meds Affect Outcome?

Does a patient's health matter when it comes to having a successful procedure? What about certain meds? My health over the past few years has not been great as I have asthma, hypertension and an enlarged prostate. I get a Kenalog 40 shot once every 4 months or so and take bursts of prednisone to control my asthma. I know that taking prednisone can affect the bodies ability to ward off infection and heal. Will this affect my chances of having good growth?

 

I also take Lisinopril and Flomax.

 

Any thoughts on this subject?
