Took Emily for a follow up yesterday...
because last week she had a bad asthma attack and was officially diagnosed with asthma - up until now they were just saying that she would probably have it -- but it was her 4th bad attack so it made a diagnosis.
So I brought her back yesterday, a week later, for her followup, and even after being on an antibiotic, prednisone, albuterol 4X/day (was every 4 hours last week), and reintroducing her pulmicort 2X/day this weekend, she is still wheezing. 
So she has to go back on Monday, and if she is still wheezing then the doctor wants to add another med to her daily asthma meds --- cingulair.
It just really sucks. She did so well for most of the year and it's just been the past few months that her asthma has been getting really bad again. It makes me sad. I don't want her asthma to be as bad as my DHs.

I'm sorry she is dealing with this. Hopefully the singulare works for her.

Re: Took Emily for a follow up yesterday...
I'm not familiar with asthma, but did Dh have asthma since childhood? Is there a chance she could grow out it?
Sorry if i sound naive

Re: Took Emily for a follow up yesterday...
I'm sorry Alex was diagnosed with Asthma as well this winter, which I wasn't too pleased about, but so far, she seems to respond well to the albuterol and the nebulizer. But I'm sure, our time will come soon, and I'll be asking you lots of questions
