Hi all,

I need a recommendeation of a good Paediatric Respiratory specalist. I just called one and can't be seen until Jan, but really don't want to wait until then as we have a sleep study in mid oct and then we are going to see our Paed, so i would like all the medical problems for DS started by then, so i can get her opinion.

We think he has asthma or some other respiratory problem, and until then we will be giving him a preventor via spacer morning and night at the GPs recommendation - but doing that for 4 months without a real diagnosis seems silly.

Can anyone help me? Also, for anyone else who's child has asthma - 1. how did you know, and 2. how was it diagnosed, and 3. what do you do to treat it?

Thanks.
