Well we ended up spending the last 5 hours in the ER. About 4:30 pm DS started coughing up gunk and losing his breath. The inhaler didn't help and his fever shot up to 104.6. They did a chest x-ray and tested him for flu, strep and pneumonia. He was negative for all three. He has severe bronchitis that was on the verge of turning to pneumonia. They gave him a shot with antibiotics and a script for a Z-pack and a cough suppressant. Tonight he is sleeping without coughing and wheezing. Now lets hope we didn't pick up something at the ER.
