    IV Meds and School

    WE are, for the first time, facing the possibility of IV meds next month after a bronchoscopy. When on home IVs, with a three times a day dose, can kids go to school? DS is in 10th grade--not sure what to expect if he needs to do the whole IV thing?

    Drop in pft

    My son's just dropped from 80 to 72. He pondered putting him in for Ivs but decided on a course of antibiotics at home and a bronchoscopy. If the bronchoscopy shows anything, they will start the IVS. He has been feeling pretty good also.
