jess has been coughing and sneezing a lot and has mucus , I was wondering what would you use for the flu and to stop it before she has to end up in the hospital because of congested lungs.

Sarah thanks in advance!!! http://www.tracheostomy.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I don't know if there is much you can do except for lots of CPT and maybe some extra nebulizer treatments to help her through it. The doctor may want to order a short course of steroids. You might want to call and check.

Also keep pushing fluids as it will help keep the mucus loose and easier to cough up. Deb
