My 4 year old has developed cough variant asthma since starting school and it can get quite serious at times. She uses salbutamol and pulmicort for the ongoing cough almost 8 months now. We have tried montelukast too. Her ped once told me that many children outgrow this form of asthma later in life. I am feeling very down seeing her suffer and have to take medication on an ongoing basis. Can anyone offer some hope by sharing incidences of their loved ones outgrowing this diagnosis? I would love to hear them.
