Hi there! I know what you are going through first hand!! My DD was finally diagnosed right before her 2nd Bday AFTER getting Pneumonia! She had constant watery eyes and after the Ped Eye Dr confirmed her tear ducts were fine, she was congested, had running nose issues, and finally after 5 breathing treatments at her peds office they told me she had asthma ASSOCIATED with allergies, and I was told that when she gets sick with a cold, it triggers it. I had her tested at the allergist office and she has allergies to mold, pollen, and certain grasses and trees only here in south Florida. They mixed up the Albuterol and Pulmicort meds in the nebulizer for about 2 weeks to help her and put her on Dallergy syrup, and fortunately, it worked! She was just given the ok this last Sat. at her peds office for the asthma not being there, she has a cough caused by her allergies but the Dallergy helps her with that. The only way to tell if it is an asthma attack is they way she will cough constantly like she cannot get a breath in and seemed like she was choking....talk about scary! See if your ped would recommend anything else, I would recommend taking your DD to
an Allergist/Asthma specialist and having them check her properly. I recommend http://www.florida-allergy.com/ Dr Zevy Landman as he is wonderful, as well as the rest of their staff. They were able to confirm all my fears about my little one and find a solution to it!! I wish you all the best!
