  1. Allergies

    Reactive Airway Disease

    What are the symptoms?  What is being done to treat it?

    Is the child on maintenance drugs such as pulmicort or qvar?

    Need more info!


  2. Have the doctors checked for RSV.  My oldest daughter was exposed to this when 4 months old and had to use a nebulizer with asthma medications daily until the age of 3 and one half.  This will cause breathing problems, wheezing, more likely to get chest infections, etc.  She was also tested for cystic fibrosis and came back negative.  Something to remember in the future and watch for.  She did well for 8 years and now has been diagnosed with Reactive Airway Disease, basically asthma and has to carry a rescue inhaler.  Once you have been exposed to these problems I think they are more likely to recur down the road.
