It does suck, DD1 gets it constantly in the colder months and is on ventilon(sp) now even though she isn't two yet but it works and helps prevent the bronchiolitis from developing.

Our GP is great he suggests keeping the room warm, using a vaporiser with eucalyptus oil and elevate the cot.

I have found that the milk/formula seems to set of a coughing fit but its hard to avoid when they need to keep their fliuds up. Hope your appointment went well.
