we're breaking out of this joint!
okay, well we're not really breaking out, we're getting discharged!!! woo hoo!! almost a full 24 hours at the hospital, but not quite!
diagnosis:
bronchiolitis (again!) and the start of ear infections in both ears!!
treatment:
albuterol every three hours until our follow-up with the peds office on monday
pulmacort (inhaled steriod) twice a day
oral steroid twice a day until sunday
antibiotics once a day for 9 more days
OMG! sounds like we're going to have our hands full this weekend with treatments! looks like not a lot of sleep for us either....again! but hey, as long as it gets the dude feeling and breathing better i'll do it!!
future:
sounds like we'll be using the pulmacort twice a day for awhile now as a preventative measure. we also need to try and figure out what is causing these episodes, which leads me to the fact that we will most likely be seeing a pulmonologist once the dude gets better to discuss prevention, treatments, etc.
