I had to call an Ambo because DS1 woke up vomiting and couldn't breathe so i understand how scary it is, anyway because we are so regional when he started improving i huddled him into the car and drove him myself cos they were going to be an hour plus - this all being at 4am in the morning. He wasn't diagnosed until 2 days later when we were in Perth and he wasn't improving so took him to another doctor, the problem was at the hospital the nurses in ED didn't think he was bad enough to call the doctor in so he didn't even get assessed by a doctor. He was put onto Prednisone which i medicated him over three days i think and started coming good with the first couple of doses on the first day. DS2 come down with the same thing a week later but because i knew what we were dealing with i told the hospital what the deal was but i had to take him back up the hospital everyday for them to administer the Prednisone because of his age.
