Three visits to Texas Children's Hospital in one week to see specialists. The ENT wants to do tubes and adenoids right away. We are waiting a few weeks until the first week of summer when we are out of school. The pulmonologist did an infant pulmonary function test. He shows some obstructive lung disease, the most common one being asthma, particularly in the lower airways. The doctor feels this has been a case of uncontrolled asthma. He increased the dosage of inhaled steroid to see if that helps control it. If not, we will have to
play with different treatment therapies.
Emerson did so well for the test. He had to be sedated. When he woke up he was so good! He smiled thru his sleepiness! He also got to have his first (and last for awhile) taste of juice! He thought it was so yummy!!
