so i decided to stay home today since the dude hadn't been fever free for 24 hours. he woke up not having a fever, but still coughing and wheezing. i called the doctors office and got an 845 appointment. score! got to the office and got brought back. no big surprise, he sounded junky and was wheezing. we gave the dude another neb treatment to see if that would do anything. 15 mins later, better, but still not great.
apparently the doctor thinks graham might have had a touch of pneumonia, but there's no way of really telling unless they did a chest xray (yeah, didn't want to have to do that today!). so our diagnosis...nothing really...but we're starting an oral steroid once a day on top of the albuterol and pulmacort to see if we can stomp out whatever this thing is!! i think the doctors and nurses were all relieved to hear we had made an appointment for the pulmonologist on wednesday. i think they're just as anxious as us to see what they say!
