DS is sick for the first time...part 4...RSV & a nebulizer

Just when the whole ordeal reached its peak of stupidity, he has now developed a serious case of RSV. His respiratory rate is between 40 - 60, and he is not expelling the phlegm, which has now settled in his chest.

So now he is on Albuterol Sulfate nebulizer 4 times a day. He goes back to the Ped tomorrow to see if he is improving, and if so we can reduce his treatments and eventually stop them. If he is not improved then we will have to return to the hospital to get more intense treatments.

The Ped assured me that he is healthy otherwise, and is convinced that he picked it up in the emergency room based on the timing of the symptoms. Luckily, she saw him everyday from Friday through Monday, so she has first-hand experience with his illness.

I am so mad I could just beat someone.

AND I missed Liz's baby shower. I was really looking forward to going & wishing her well.

Thanks again all for letting me vent....I am so disgusted by this whole thing
