Hi all! Do any of you have kids who have/had this diagnosis? He was first diagnosed with bronchitis at a local urgent care center. His regular pediatrician believes its CVA because of his persistent chronic cough. He started on Albuterol and a short term dose of Prednisone.

Any advice, opinions, suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi Sannah,

Thanks for replying! The doc told me to wait about 3 - 5 days to make a guesstimate if the steroids and inhaler are working. I think I see a definite drop in the frequency of the coughing, still very very dry though. We're going back in 2 weeks. I'll keep the humidifer going and cross my fingers!!!
