I have an 8 year old little girl. She started out with a sneezing attack so severe we went to the ER. She was sneezing back to back - 400 sneezes in an hour. We had just moved into an apartment & once we left the apartment her allergies/sneezing went away, but because of the severity of the sneezing attack her diaphragm is now out of wack.. she has chronic hiccups (diagnosed as Intractable Singltus). She has been on Baclofen & now Reglan & her Dr. just added a form of Xanax to the list. We are going on weeks of sleepless nights & stress. Please if you can give us any advice... Thanks so much!! Lost ...
The sneezing and hiccups are indeed due to allergic reaction to some agent present in the apartment. Even though you have moved away from the apartment, some trigger might still be present. Identifying that might be really difficult. Fatigue of the diaphragm cannot occur as otherwise her respiration has to stop which is not the case. The doctor suspects Castro esophageal reflux rightly and has given raglan. You can add life to the regimen. I would also suggest adding montage LC (montelukast + levocetirizine) tablet once a day. Xanax (alprazolam) will help her sleep, and I strongly suggest you take the same.
