is Jax on any kind of allergy meds? Does he have asthma?

They JUST put him on Zyrtec yesterday, and while they insist that just because he's had RSV doesn't mean he has asthma, I'm pretty sure it does, seeing as how almost every time he gets sick we have to give him treatments. Fun, no?

Zyrtec is good, my son is on it. Singular is also great with the zyrtec. Do you have a lung doc? I can't spell what they are called. We were not told that my son had asthma until he was in hospital over night. He was two. He also had alot of the same issues Jax does. Hopefully the zyrtec will help. A T&A helped my son ALOT, but then again he had sleep apena too. LOL Life is great with sick kids. :)
