Pediatric Pulmonologist Appt

This morning I took the kids to school. Went to the gym, which I have been going to now every morning 4-5 days a week. Came home to shower. Got Nate from school. Drove to Miles City. Nathan had an appointment with the pulmonologist. Everything looks GOOD!! He hasn't had any major illnesses. Dr told us he could stop taking his Flovent puffer! He was totally excited about that! Just need to follow-up in another 6 months, sooner if any pulmonary issues.

Nathan has been getting a few ear infections as of late, so the Dr did draw his blood to make sure he doesn't have IGA, an immune difficiency. I believe he has already been tested for all the auto-immune diseases. And nothing came back positive.

Autoimmune diseases compromise the immune system. A defective immune system wreaks havoc throughout the host by directing antibodies against its own tissues. That could've been why his lungs were bleeding, his body was attacking the lungs.
