Question; does your child cough all the time? Since Christian's diagnoses he

only really coughs when he is getting sick? Before diagnoses he would could

until he threw up. I am wondering if he should be doing " therapy coughs " while

feeling well.

Ellie has had a little cough since birth; her lungs are clear at this

point so they think it is related to the reflux. That has also pretty

much stopped since starting Previcid. Jumping a lot or when she gets

laughing while we are being chased by her brother are the only other

times I notice her coughing. So far she has not been sick so I don't

really know if there will be a difference. I just figured it could be

good just in case there was anything there that we would want to clear

out...are their lungs ever really mucus free????

Tina,

My son is only 7 months old and had never really coughed a lot even

after diagnosis. He has cultured staff twice now and has been coughing

speradically ever since.

I tought him to cough while I was doing his treatments. I figured

that it would only help him clear out as much of the junk as possible.

It really is almost a game to him.
