the doc said my 11 month old has asthma?

Question

she has been coughing for 3 weeks so they gave her an antibiotic for bronchitis and pneumonia and it did nothing so they started her on this breathing machine for asthma! she is still coughing and now for the last 3 days she has been vomiting (projectile) no fevers...nothing just cough!! could it just be asthma or something else?

Answer 1

I do not know the cause, but I do know that there are MANY that have the same thing. But the medical community here will not admit there is a problem.

Answer 2

Asthma at 11 month ?

suggest ALLERGY Testing:

<<>> FOOD both IgE Immedciate and IgG4 Delayed..
KIDs Allergy starts with FOOD and migrates to InHalant.

<<>> InHalant IgE Testing.

60% of ASTHMA = ALLERGIC Asthma.

ALLERGIES are PRIME Trigger for Asthma Attacks.

Neutralize the ALLERGY Disease Source with DIET ( FOODs ) and Under-the-Tongue immunoTherapy DROPs for InHalants.

3 Causes Found for Kids' Chronic Cough
Allergy, Acid Reflux, and Asthma Are Leading Suspects in Most Cases, Study Shows

Oct. 2007 -- Doctors in Louisiana have identified three leading causes of chronic cough in children.

Those Chronic Cough causes are:

Ø Allergy
Ø Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) ( Look into ALLERGIES as Source )
Ø Asthma ( which is really “ Allergic “ Asthma )

That's according to Dean Edell, MD, MPH, and colleagues at West Jefferson Medical Center in Marrero, La.

They did thorough checkups on 40 children (average age: 9) with chronic cough (cough lasting more than eight weeks).

None of the children had been born prematurely or exposed to tobacco smoke. The kids got chest X-rays and various medical tests, including allergy and lung function tests.

Edell's team concluded that allergy, GERD, or Asthma "are likely to account" for chronic cough in 90% of the children with chronic cough that they studied.

Those three conditions -- Allergy, GERD, and Asthma -- may be a good starting point for treating children with chronic cough, according to Edell and colleagues.

They presented their findings today in Chicago at CHEST 2007, the annual international scientific meeting of the American College of Chest Physicians.
