while visiting grandma, DS (3 1/2) had chronic asthma attack at weekend, and spent 24 hours in hospital, with 12 nebulisers, plus oral steroids and additional ventolin thru spacer...
they have called it viral asthma - he had an attack last oct (hospital - 2 nebulisers) and since then been on becotide twice a day, plus afew times each month lots of ventolin, plus 2 or 3 nebulsiers at doc... so i thought reasonably under control.
this latest episode seems so concerning - am i right to be worried? 12 nebulisers seems so much... going to see our normal GP tomorrow - what should i ask him?
someone has mentioned 'singulair granules' and also 'flixotide' for children - have you any experience of these???
thanks xx
