Ok Im going to try and make a long story short.
In November, my son had bronchitis and it never really went away. I took him to the doctor, literally 10 times from Nov.1 til he wound up in the hospital on X-mas. Well he ended up with pneumonia (or so they say) and was in the hospital for 5 days getting breathing treatments and an IV full of antibiotics and steriods. The next week after the hospital, they put tubes in his ears and everything seemed to finally be over. Fast forward three weeks, (today) and now he has the same damn symptoms that he had in November. I really don't know what to do anymore. He hardly sleeps and Im about to check myself into a hospital to have a nervous breakdown. |

Yeah I have done that. That is how he ended up in the hospital. I just can't handle him crying and not sleeping. It's really starting to weigh me down mentally.
Thanks. |

go back to the hospital if hes got history with them, they should treat him. kick up a fuss and say u wantit sorted - its not accepable for a child to be ill again when they only treated him a few weeks ago.
and as for u remember we're here for u |

Have they tested for allergies?
|

Also try going to different doctors. They do make mistakes sometimes. I'd also recommend going to a hospital with a very good reputation.

Thank you. Ever since he was born, his breathing has been a little odd to me. Every single doctor has blown it off as something that "he will grow out of". BTW he is almost 10 months old now. |

You'll get a more reliable diagnosis from a nontraditional doctor. I strongly recommend finding a skilled EPFX practitioner in your area. He/she won't be able to give him a formal diagnosis (can't by law), but he/she should be able to exactly pinpoint what's wrong. And the EPFX will make far more progress in healing him than traditional allopathic medicine will.
Information you need: first, the EPFX is recognized by the FDA only as a "biofeedback device," and because of that any practitioner can't really get into the details of the device's capabilities. But I assure you, I've seen it work miracles with my own eyes. Some of the information on the websites you may find on it sounds a little wacky, but that's really only because of the restrictions placed on the technology by the FDA from not having tested it thoroughly enough to formally approve all its functions. Also, EPFX treatment usually runs about $100/hour. However, from the sound of it that'd be a bargain compared to what you'll be paying the hospital. If you want to contact and talk to a skilled practitioner, who is a close friend of mine, check out http://www.epfxt3.com/ Hope this helps! |

Have they tested for allergies? No as I was told that it really doesn't pin point exactly what it is he is allergic to/ |

How old is he?? what are the symptoms? He is almost 10 months old. He is coughing, and lots of weezing in his chest. Only sleeping about 5 hours a night, and very fussy. Forgot to mention his low grade fever. |

do you have a cool mist humidifier??? or you can also use a very hot shower steam.......stand in the hot steam with your baby......get really hot....
Sounds like bronchiolitis but please check with your doctor/////// Put him over your lap on his tummy and massage and gently tap his back to help get the mucous out.... But again.......go to your doctor!!! |
