severe breathing problems
by educatedmommy21, Feb 25, 2008 05:43PM
I have two children. My daughter is 2 and my son will be 1 in April. They both have horrible breathing problems. My daughter's breathing started to get nasty around 5 months of age and has been good and bad since. My son's breathing just started recently. They are both on pulmacort and albuterol and my son was just put on predisolone. Nothing is working!! Does anyone have any advice? We are a NON smoking home and would NEVER let anyone near our children with ciggarettes. We do not have pets either. I just dont know what to do anymore. =-(

Yes what exactly are the symptoms your child is having? You need to watch about having your child on prednisone for long periods of time. But let me know the exact symptoms and I maybe able to help.. like what does it sound like? Do you live ina new or older home/apartment? Is it worse at night, day or excersising/ being active? Is it worse when they are sick with a cold? Hav ethey tried Flovent and Ventalin??
