Wheezing

Addison had another upper GI series done last Friday and she vomited later that day. She vomited 3 times on Saturday but none on Sunday. She kept us up all night coughing so this morning I called and got her an appointment with her pediatrician. She was wheezing on her right lung so a chest xray was ordered. The results were the same as her last chest xray she had taken in March when she was admitted to the hospital for 3 days. Dr. Guidroz said she thinks Addison is a chronic aspirator. She said since she is just wheezing on her right lung it may be a swallowing problem, that when she swallows some is going into her lungs. She ordered another test, her nurse will schedule it and call me. Addison was given a breathing treatment in the office and sent home with her own machine. She also prescribed a steroid for 5 days, and a new nasal spray to use everyday. Addison is already taking a daily inhaler to prevent wheezing. Wow is all I can say. I know I am not a doctor but I am confused. First because why wasn't a follow up chest xray ordered when she was discharged in March to make sure it was cleared up? Second because when she was prescribed the daily inhaler in May it was because she was wheezing, why wasn't a chest xray ordered then? Dr. Guidroz is also concered about scarring in her lung since it has been there for so long and all the radiation she is being exposed to running all these test. Addision vomited twice this morning and 2 more times on the way home from the doctor's office. We have decided to just keep her home and take her out of daycare. We are paying each week and she usually only goes 3 days at the most. Especially with winter around the corner, she is just to fragile to be exposed to all those germs. She has only been going since March. This means I will be pulling all nighters and working every weekend. But I feel like we have no other choice. Addison will be fitted for orthotics on Friday. She has to have her feet casted and then the cast sawed off. She screamed last time so Tre' is definetly coming with me this time. Please continue to pray for Addison and our family. Me and Tre just want answers and our little girl to be able to enjoy life.
