  1. wtf man go to the hospital  


  2. When my baby girl had all this going on and each time she was hospitalized, at least 5 times a years for the first 4 years. I would ask so many questions and keep notes in a note book. Thats the time to inform your self on your little girls problems.

    AS said above NO ONE here should be giving you medical advice for her.... She is just to precious to make a mistake with.

    Good Luck and God Bless.

    Ps it helps to keep copies of her medical, ambulance and hospital reports with you.AND any tests that the doctor has ordered too


  3. I do hope she is in the hospital already.

    If not, go now.

    Is she getting breathing treatments (albuterol), they can increase the heart rate, and the oxygen will be weaned when she gets better.  Respiratory viruses usually last about a week or two.  Be patient, she will get better, and always ask your doctor, nurse and other health professionals questions if you do not understand what is going on.

  4. If she is at home with you and this is happening (heart rate and breathing), you need to call 911 immediately for a pediatric ambulance... and I do mean NOW. Get off the computer and call.

    If she is in hospital, you will have to ask the doctors about her condition. No one on here should dare comment or give advice.
