Hi Folks,
Question from a mom here. My son, who was given albuterol as a preventative, used it once due to smoke inhalation from the burning brush with his dad and was flagged (no surprise) for DQ241.30. Even though his primary care physician stated in a letter that he was not asthmatic, the issue has been resolved and that he never used the inhaler, only had it for preventative measures, which made no difference.
To those in the know, do you have any suggestions for having him see a pulmonary doctor and go through a PFT to dispel any assumption that he has what they claim "he could still have issues," even though the kid is as fit as a fiddle?
His caseworker from DoDMERBS is not helpful, and I want to steer this kid on the right path. I would greatly appreciate any info/expertise.
Thank you.
