    Thanks Tan, I will ask for a referral for sure.

    She was running around with our dogs today and started coughing.... exercise seems to set it off too

    So DD1 had her appointment today and dr says its hard to diagnose asthma in a three year old. He prescribed her with ventolin & a spacer. He said only use it if the humidifier won't help.

    Last night the humidifier helped and we never heard her cough it was great!

    Fingers crossed she doesn't need it, I haven't even bought it yet as I am hoping not to use it.

    So it could be asthma, maybe not he said? He said it could be allergies...dust, pets, food, anything.

    But it seems to happen after a burst of physical activity and at night time.
