Is all I have heard from ds (2.9) for nearly 2 weeks.
I took him to the doctor, who had a listen, said "no infection" and prescribed him a ventolin inhaler! Which has made no discernable differance.
The coughing is waking him up at night, he is waking up asking for medicine, then staying awake for 2 or 3 hours, shouting, jumping, playing, demanding breakfast (at 3 am? No chance pal!) and of course, coughing.
I have tried Tixylix, Tixylix night time, and Venos. Nothing is helping, we are all so tired! I tried steaming the cough, but the minute we left the bathroom it came back.
Does anyone have any ideas? I have sent him to playschool because he is not flipping ill, just this awful non stop cough!
