Any words of advice from anyone thats been through this?
DS2 is 13 months and is having a Laryngoscopy done under GA at the end of the month and if it is definitely Largynomalacia then they've said (and I've consented) to them treating it there and then.
I sort of know what they actually do (thanks to Google!) but we've got his pre-op next week and I just wanted to know if there are any specific questions we need to ask?
Backstory is he was premature-born at 32 weeks as I had severe PE. Tube fed in NICU for 4 weeks but no oxygen or anything. The stridor noise came on almost over night at about 6 months which is why they aren't 100% convinced it's Laryngomalacia as it's usually present from birth.
Im just so so sick of hearing this noise all the time and I hope to god they manage to sort it out...all my worries about the operation are outweighed by the relief I will feel to not have to listen to him constantly struggling.
He's tiny still...last weigh in was just over 19lb despite him eating like a horse so they think he's using up all his energy just trying to breathe.
DS1 had tonsils/adenoids out at 2 due to sleep apnea and speech/hearing issues and DS2 is having his op done by the same fantastic surgeon which I am so pleased about.
Don't even really know why Im posting-just want somebody to tell me that Im doing the right thing and that it will make a difference to my gorgeous smiley little boy.
