I guess time will tell if this is going to be a problem every winter or if it will subside with time. She never had this problem before the nasal version of the Bortella was given. I also said - no more up the nose! If you find a solution, please post it! I am still working on a solution too! |
I am so sorry about the weakened trachea. As I said before, I went through this, a severe case for over 4 years. If you have any questions about it I can help. One thing that really triggered her was heat. She would love to lay in the sun but then any panting can trigger it. Getting excited can do it too. Trying to keep them calm can be hard but necessary. I hope all goes well with you and your baby.
