I posted a while back about ds2, 17mo, going for an X-ray for constant coughing and chest noise. It came back clear.

However I took him back to the docs this morning because his poor chest is still bad and the doctor thinks it's possibly childhood asthma and ha given us solbutamol and a space. I managed to get some of the inhaler in him, what fun that was!

She suspects he has allergies as well because he is a sneezy boy.

Come and join us on the asthma support thread if that would help!!

Hopefully the salbutamol will help him, given time he will get used to taking it - try making it a game and let him play with the spacer inbetween taking it.
