ER regulars!

I have to admit, I'm beginning to hate the ER! After another not great day with Zachy with his coughing getting worse, his appetite decreasing, and his wheezing continuing. We were back at the dr on Friday for a recheck. The initial plan was to change his antibiotic and wait it out. Then my dr got the genius idea to check an oxygen saturation on him. It was only 86%. So that bought us another visit to the ER. He coughed well on the way to the hospital and of course by the time we got there he was 96%. Oh well. He did get a extra special treatment called a heart neb that was twice the dose of Albuterol that we were doing at home along with another medication called Atrovent. These two changes together truly seemed to turn him around! He has been doing well since. Keep praying that the wheezing stays away. We finish the antibiotics and steroids on Sunday, so we'll see!
