Hi all,
Could I get your advice on my LO?
Over dec he had a chest infection which cleared with anti biotics however his breathing was really rattly. When I took him back to the docs they gave him a inhaler which helped clear his air waves.
He is currently teething / cold / toddler type lurgy currently and his breathing sounds rattly & he is coughing a lot. I gave him the inhaler a couple of times today.
Over this & the previous occasion I have been asked a few times if he is asthmatic (one being the local pharmacist & another who is a family friend who is a medic). I have thought this deep down but the GP don't seem too concern.
How do I go about getting him diagnosed / investigated further. I feel like I need a compelling argument to get my GP to take me seriously. At the moment the impression they give me is that they think I am an over anxious first time mother.
I would just like to know so we can deal with what we need to or eliminate it. Or am I being a over anxious first time mother ....
