He had similar complaints at the age of 7 months and was hospitalized for same for 10 days and diagnosed as bronchiolitis and treated with IV antibiotics and nebulization. He was again hospitalized at 8 months of age for pneumonia and treated with IV antibiotics for 14 days. At that time, he was ventilated and bronchoalveolar lavage grew Klebsiella pneumoniae. He has had repeated episodes of cough and breathlessness and has been treated with antibiotics and steroids.
