lungtest

september 7 2007

Went with one of the boys to the hospital for a lungtest.

At times he keeps coughing and coughing, times he looks like he's washed with bleach. And a couple of weeks ago he became so congested that he was brought to the ER.
They said he was hyperventilating, but it sounded much more like a short asthma attack.

So I wanted to know what's going on and so did our doctor.

Today he had a histamine test.
He did quite well untill his second round of sprays with histamine.

The nurse and I heard he had difficulty breathing, but he himself didn't realise it fully.
"Breathing out was a bit of an effort", he said. But he had been through worse.

Well, the test was stopped and he got quite an amount of ventolin.
It kicked in, so we were allowed to go home.

Next wednesday we get the results.

I think I know what to expect.
