[quote=Anonymous]Hello everyone, I am not sure what to think - my 2 year old was diagnosed with asthma by our ped today. We were at the ER this weekend and the diagnosis was Reactive Airway disease. But this was the third time we ended up in the ER in the last 18 months or so. Not each time, but like every second or third time, when my son has a cold, he starts wheezing very heavily and has a shortness of breath, so we have to use the nebulizer and the ER prescribes steroids. I was jut looking for feedback from other moms whose child is or was in the same situation. I read that about 2/3 of children outgrow this by age 5; but I really don't know what to expect. Our ped went over a suggested treatment plan for potential future episodes, to prevent the need to go to the ER. Thanks![/quote]
