breathing problems

[Guest guest]

I got a question... several weeks ago we took 8yr(DS),to have a sleep study done. The reason why was because she got where she was getting up 5-6x a night. I have been totally tired..and alone (DH been working alot and when is home not much help). So anyway.... we got the results in 4 days after the sleep study. Was told 7-14 days is typical...but when the dr called, I knew it was not great news. Well they(lung drs) referred us back to the ENT again.. We went today and he saw no regrowth of T & A and her nose looked good along with her ears. He was very upset with the test results and not a happy camper. I took her to the dr today and went in totally BLIND! Not expecting to hear that he wanted to take her to the OR and do some exploring in the nose and throat,windpipe and voice box to see if there is any obstrution...mabey a bit of anoid might have growed back and in the way.. my question..

He mention something about injecting her anoid with rinocort??? anyone heard of this and what does it do?? the purpose??

He also mention last option would be a trach.. so I was in really BIG SHOCKED by the end of her appt. Now I am loaded with questions and no answer so thought I would ask yall.. mabey SARA??

Also the surgery will take place in the next few months...

On the lighter note.. took Dayton 3yr(DS) too the same ENT at the same time.. Hearing checked out great and the chronic sinus infection will come and go till he is bigger.. told me I was doing wonderful with him... after 2 1/2 months of meds.. he ought to be wonderful..lol

OK.. glad i got some good news.. but need some answer with the other now..

Thanks in Advance..

Happy New Year 2002.... WOW
