Lynda's pediatrician called on Friday and has removed Lynda from taking oral steroids. We are extremely excited about this. Evey since coming home from National Jewish we have been going every two weeks for blood work to see if her cortisol level was coming into the normal range. Once it hit the normal range that meant we could stop giving her Orapred. Her zinc level is still low so we are to continue to give her a liquid zinc supplement.
It was a short night last night. Lynda woke with the Croup cough. We went outside for the fresh cool air, gave her one albuterol treatment, went back to bed. 10 minutes later she was back again coughing and wheezing, so we gave her another albuterol treatment. She is sleeping now. We will see what the morning brings when I wake her. It might be a stay home day with grandma and grandpa Meyer.
Well I better finish getting ready for work. Have a great week everyone!
