phew! so glad DS hasn't been exposed!!!
looks like sinus infection + reactive airway disease (which is basically infection-induced asthma). they gave me an inhaler which is helping a lot. my sore throat is getting worse so i'm still feeling panicked that this illness will never end, but hopefully it will be better tomorrow. thanks for all of the support.
Re: pertussis test negative!!!
So glad that is all this is, though I know what you have is no fun, because I get it a lot! Not sure what you've been prescribed, but if you're allowed to supplement with sudafed, try taking a Mucinex-D. The more you can clean out/dry up your sinuses, the less your airway will be inflamed by PND. And make sure you gargle after the inhaler so you don't get thrush! (ugh - too much to think about!!)
(((hugs))) sweetie! I hope you bounce back soon!!
Thank goodness.
Pertussis is scary. Now- just rest, relax and get better mama!
