Guest guest Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 We are new to this confusing world of MDS and just full of questions! There are a lot of odd things I have noticed about our 14month old Caede that I am just now starting to realize might go hand in hand with DS. My newest question: does anyone else have a child that seems to be very intolerant to heat/exertion? My 2 and a half year old little girl can run all day nonstop and not get winded, and even this Alabama heat doesn't seem to bother her. But when we go outside, within ten minutes my little boy is wheezing, red-faced, and sweating, and I have to take him inside to cool off. He has always gotten easily winded/wheezy- we were just told he might have asthma and given a nebulizer and albuterol, which he HATES. I stopped using it after flu season when I realized that it wasn't really helping. He doens't have any other problems that I know of- he spent his first 2 weeks in the NICU because he was premature, and they have to have a heart scan before they're allowed to come home and that was normal. So I have no idea why he reacts this way! If anyone else has experience with this, I would be thrilled to hear your input. Thanks! - (mother of Gracie, age 2 1/2 and Caede, age 14mo <MDS>) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
