re-read ur post. most daddies r nt sure of their children's medical history or the type of drugs. this one hor, u cannot fault miser leh. i can tell mr pax everythg, he can still get it wrong. it's nt only miser lah. u can ask the other mommies. BUT i know u r feeling down n fed up that miser can't help much. it's ok, we u/s.
otrivin can get fr the shelves. i think Ventolin is controlled drug, dun think u can get fr pharmacist. go down n get fr Dr Ong tmr. no choice, jus use promethazine on its own for the time being.
as for Teng falling sick all the time, other than the air purifier, is there anythg else u can do? r u giving him supplements? childlife colostrum? probiotics? multi-vits? does Teng pick on his food? a child, eating well, but lacking in the full spectrum of minerals / vits, may fall sick more often. Vit C alone is nt gd enf, i feel. he's also attending CCC, so imo suggest u start him on some sort of supplements to build up his immunity.
2nd, u may wan to do wat AAA is doing. let Teng use the inhaler. ask Dr Ong. it's nt gd for him to fall sick all the time.
the last thing i wan to suggest, go pray. whichever faith u believe in, i think u shld do it.
jus my 2 cents. we all know n u/s it's nt ez to deal w sick kids, moreover u hv a young baby. u take care n pump up on ur vit c, miser n ellie too. i know u r feeling vv down. jus vent ur frustrations here.
