[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 188170, member: 2423"] Sometimes wheezing can occur as part of a viral or bacterial infection. Our pediatrician doesn't diagnosis that as asthma unless it happens repeated times. My son has had wheezing as a symptom of infections, but he doesn't have asthma because it has only occurred a few times during illness. My older daughter, on the other hand, has been diagnosed with asthma because her wheezing has occurred numerous times during illness and during allergy season. We did have her allergy-tested, and she is allergic to trees, grass, ragweed, mold and dust. In the spring she is more likely to have asthma attacks because of her allergies. She carries Albuterol with her at all times, and following an attack will also go on a course of a maintenance inhaler (in her case, Advair). I think it's wise to have your daughter checked out by a specialist to make sure you know exactly what you're dealing with. [/QUOTE]
