[quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old has had a cold since around August 10th. It wouldn't let up, the runny nose and an infrequent cough. A few days ago I took him to the doc they said he had a sinus infection and put him on amoxicillin. Today the school called me and said he couldn't breathe, so I picked him up and he was panicking saying there was stuff in his throat and he couldn't breathe and he thought he was going to die. I took him to the doc and they said he was wheezing, did a breathing treatment, gave prednisone and a different antibiotic for what they said was an ear infection and reactive airway disease. Just wondering if anyone has been through this or what kind of diagnosis this is. Does he have asthma from a cold now? She said lungs take a while to heal, like 6 months, and I'm very stressed about it. [/quote]
