i have a 5 month old boy who has been sick for 2 months now. he started out with a cough, went from that to not eating, then only for 2 days a croupy cough. So i took him to the doctor to see if he had a sore throat since he wasnt eating. After saying that to him he wouldnt even look down his throat, and they said he was wheezing put him on albuterol and said if not better in a week bring back. okay so i did bring him back and they acted like i was stupid and said he was fine. He just got worse he screams all the time,still rattly chest,hoarse in his throat still not eating as much but is eating and gaining so not to concerned about that. So i took him to a diffrent doctor paid a new patient fee i dont have insurance. he said he had croup gave him medicine said he was not wheezing anymore. He was not having the croup cough anymore only lasted 2 days. he said his throat was red but thinks its from coughing. ears were fine. he seemed to be better for a few days. Now back to all the same symptoms. i am concerned about bronchitis but all doctors say no. do they even know anymore? i am so upset i am worried for my babies health. i mean poor baby has been sick for 2 whole months. I am taking him to a diffrent doc monday. my friends baby has rsv and had all the same symptoms of my baby. she went on for 2 months being sick and being told it was a virus. baby ended up in the hospital for 2 weeks. but his doc said that he is to active for rsv. i am concerned. any suggestions. we are sleeping with humidipher. i thank u in advanced for comments.
