Pulmonology Update

Tuesday, July 31, Caden had a follow-up appointment with his pulmonologist. He's doing excellent and it looks like we get to wean him completely off his maintenance nebulizer medication! Woohoo!!! That means he is only on two medications now (Singulair and his growth hormone). He's been on maintenance nebulizer meds since he was 10 months old and his former pulmonologist didn't think we would be able to wean him off. But here we are!


I know when he gets sick we will have to do some rescue meds with the nebulizer for him but it is so freeing to not be tied to the neb twice/day every day like we have been. I really hope he continues to do well and we can keep things this way! Keep him in your prayers as we move forward. Now that he's in preschool he's exposed to anything and everything... :/ I'm just hoping as he's getting healthier and stronger lungs that he will be able to weather illnesses better than in the past.
