Severe allergies and asthma

Posted by Mommy2noah4

I can't begin to tell u how refreshing it was to find this site. My son is 4 and has had severe asthma since he was born. He was premature and had to be on a ventilator so he has premature lungs til he's 8. As any of you know with asthma problems that smaller airways only complicate matters. He has been in the hospital multiple times and on tons of different meds and still has attacks. Every attack lands him in the hospital for a few days. On top of this he has stage 5 allergies to pets, pollens, and mold. I live in northern Minnesota where agriculture is big and he is stuck inside all the time. The dr. said he is a bubble boy. Every time he goes outside for any length of time he has an attack. He spent 15 days in the Peds ICU on an experimental machine administering 30 liters of oxygen to him to keep his o2 sats above 85%. They told us at that point that he was fighting for his life and they didn't know what else they could do. It's been a year since then and he is doing better but he still has episodes and every one lands him in the hospital on o2. Nobody I know has kids with asthma and they just don't understand. This is the hardest thing I've ever done and sometimes I feel like I just can't handle anymore. He was back in the hospital a few weeks ago and after about half an hour at the ER they took us to a bigger hospital a few hours away because of his history they didn't think they could handle him at our local hospital. I hate that he can't have a childhood. How can u keep a 4 year old inside when it's beautiful outside and his older brother wants to play. He is on singulair and flovent now but is taking huge doses just to be able to breathe. We have been on pulmacort, atrovent,advair and now the Flovent and every time they just keep giving him more and more steroids. I hate giving him all these steroids but the dr. in no uncertain words said if we didn't they would call social services on us. I do give him the meds but I hate it and worry about the side effects long term. Well that is my story in a nut shell and I'd love to hear some advice or suggestions of what to do inside all the time. I even have to homeschool him because he can't be around other kids with pets. I just need someone to talk to. Thanks so much for your time and prayers.
