Another Asthma Attack
This one was pretty scary. Parker was just coughing a little yesterday, so we started preventative nebs of albuterol (2 on Friday), but were woken up in the wee hours on Saturday with Parker in pretty bad shape, vomiting phlegm and mucus, sweating and feeling like he had a fever. He couldn't stop coughing. So, we give him an albuterol treatment followed by 2 DuoNebs, and and take him to the peds office. He was ill on the way there, ill several times there, and is finally on the mend. It was scary for a little while, and Dr. G suggested that they might want to put him on meds for it, even though his isn't persistent. We'll see our regular Dr. W on Tuesday to discuss ...
