[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks! To the answers about what we would do differently if we knew it was RSV ... the answer may be nothing! I do not know enough about treatments for this illness, but if (like it sounds from posters here) the treatment is the same for cold and RSV, then I guess there isn't really any benefit to "knowing" which one it is. I just wasn't sure if there was anything specific that would be different for treatment. I did call the nurse line and they basically said "up to you! bring her in if you want!" OK... super helpful.[/quote] When my 18mo had RSV she was given a steroid to help her airways (or something), so there are some treatments available but only your doctor will know what is needed. If your office seems like it has appointments and coming in wouldn't be a burden, can't hurt - might help.[/quote]
