Peng,
actually Kate past attacks dun have much cough... you dun hear her cough much.. except a 2-3 times throughout the day...and none at night... but she does have lots of phelgm everytime.....mostly she will get infection of her airways.....
this time round she cough more...even at night.... she will cough and it's very chesty cough... but she is ok liao.....I gave her some chuan bei cos too much western medicine also no good... i just boil some chuan bei and use the water to cook her porridge.....
I'm thinking of letting her undergo some allergic test... cos I really dun want the doc to keep hinting it's asthma related.. and if it's really asthma related, then we will deal with it adequately... I see her taking so much western medicine I very pek chet also...cos when I was young I was very weak and I took alot of medicine... but i dun think it's good lor..... so I dun want Kate to have the same thing.... and esp if I'm not sure if she really need those medicine.....so far she was given steroids 3 times including this last episode... and I feel very uncomfortable about it....but bo bian....haiz....
i dun give Kate prawns, chicken.. not even much fruits....
babyblush, dun go kkh... 1st time Kate got sick... we went kkh after numerous visits to PD and MIL keep asking us to go KKH.... then one day we decided to go KKH cos PD no nite clinic that day.....after that trip.. she dun dare to suggestion KKH anymore....it was a horrible visit for us... like factory production.. and wait wait wait...in the end the doc gave us a milder medicine than the PD which was prescribed previously but not working......
Kate's fever also hang around for quite a number of days before finally coming down to below 38...
it takes a while... so must monitor closely.
hope Chloe gets well soon...
ya, it's really not easy being a mum!
