Guest guest Posted October 15, 2002 Report Share Posted October 15, 2002 Gale, Yes they put the children to sleep, usually because Eilish has a PICC line put in at the same time, but this time it will be with her sinus operation. Rulide is a antibiotic. They said they don't use Zithromax on children? I checked the internet and Rulide is recommended for Mycoplasma, which is what they are also testing her for. We decided also not to use her spacer any longer and switch back to hypertonic saline neb's as they move her junk and make her cough. The specialist said that was fine as the spacer doesn't work for everyone. (Australia) Re: clinic visit When they do a bronchoscopy on children, do they put them to sleep or medicate them? Is Rulide an antibiotic? Did the doctor say why he/she didn't want to per her on Zithromax? Sorry for all of the questions. I hope that you don't mind. I'll be thinking of Eilish and you.
