You've already seen your GP and got the steroidsDD had it three times last winter, and you can't miss that distinctive cough, but good thing was the subsequent times we were able to pick it up a lot quicker so the impact was a lot less. But the first dose she has was a ripper, she ended up losing her voice and it hung around for quite a while, the reoccurred exactly 2 weeks after the first case started
but it wasn't as bad as the first time.
The steroids are really good for it and it is good that the treatment for croup is so much better now than it used to be, years ago bubs were admitted to hospital and placed in an isolette!
We had a vapourisor and TBH it didn't make any difference, with Croup or Brochiolitis and when DD was in hospital with Pneumonia (she actually had the parent for Pneumonitis) also on another occasion Brochiolitis no moist air was used then, just oxigen and steroids.
