92%

 I know I've mentioned Ty's gag reflex before.

Well, I guess it's not just a gag reflex.  :0(

I took Ty to the Dr. on Tuesday to have

her examine him.  Every time he gets a cough,

he vomits.  Once at night and once in the

morning....every day for 4 weeks last time.

On our drive home from Vegas, Ty started

coughing and threw up. 

'Enough is enough', I said! 

Well, the doctor checked his blood oxygen levels

and it revealed that he is extremely low.  She

made an educated guess that he has what is called

"Cough Variant Asthma".  With that she started

him on a breathing treatment

and things improved.

 We now have an inhaler (remember this still

isn't an exact diagnoses).  We went back for a

follow up appointment yesterday and he tested

at 92%!!! In layman's terms...people under 92%

require oxygen.  Legally the Dr. couldn't let

him leave the office until he hit 95%.  After 15

minutes of treatment he finally reached 95%.

We left there and headed to get chest x-rays.

They came back clear, which rules out

pneumonia.  Our next stop is a Pediatric

Pulmonary Specialist in Phoenix. 

We will get this figured out! 

The reason I am giggling in the background

of these pictures is the fact that these drugs

make Ty sooooo hyper!  He is bouncing

off the walls.  His hands shake like an old

man and his checks are constantly flushed.

It's pretty funny watching him spin his way

to the bathroom.  What happened to my

well behaved son?  :0)  At least he's

not sickly.  That's one healthy boy...

other than this.  Love ya Ty!
