Maddie has had 4 lots of pred in 5 months. Shes been alot worse in the past (despite her only being 22months old!)

She had her Asthma check on Monday and the nurse was alarmed at how bad she is though.

She said it was evident that her Asthma is uncontrolled. Yet she isnt CONSTANTLY coughing and wheezing like before, just when shes bad shes bad yet when shes good shes good if that makes sense!!

Soooo, how many doses of pred have your lo's had? And what is considered 'normal'?

Shes on every med going at the mo and im not sure what they re going to do if they still think shes no control looking at her pred chart!

Im so confused by it all.
