well i have just got home from the emergency part of the hospitial. we waited about 90 mins to see a dr, by the time we got called DS was trying to go to sleep. i had taken him there coz he was wheezing.
the dr gave him some ventalin through a spacer with the puffer attached. and we had to wait a little while to see if he would respond to that or if he needed the steroids. he didnt need the steriods and now he is asleep.

so now i have to go back to the gp tomorow for a asthma plan. what are on these? i am asthmatic but i have never been asked or told to make one. and when my little brother was ds's age he had a asthma puffer that was hooked up to a machine and it had a face mask and he didnt use the spacer till he was about 3. should i get one of them coz ds put up a hge fight with the spacer lol
