I am so happy for you! I have been following your story! The updates are appreciated and give us hope. When I first posted, I couldn't find any posts with approx lengths of time until improvement was significant. We are about 5 weeks off of Singulair and have seen great improvement as well. We still aren't back to where I want to be, but hopefully as time goes by we will continue to regain what was lost! I can't imagine the emotional stress that this has put your family through! Thank the Lord that better days are ahead!

This sound like the same situation as my 13 year old son. I took my son off of Singular 3 weeks ago and he's smiling more and back to being a happy silly kid. I posted weeks ago, and since he's been off he had concerns of breathing issues while playing sports so we're considering other Asthma maintenance.

When my son was on Singulair he could have been their poster child, because he went from 4 asthma related hospital visits a year to 0. However, I I totally overlooked all to symtoms and would excuse them as growing pains. I feel like such a bad mom for this.

I'm just greatful to have my son back. So many of his symptoms were over looked like severe headaches everyweek. Abdomonal pains, leg cramps, halucinations (my child would tell me on occasion, he'd actually see dead people moving around our house)! If you saw my son's photo's over the past few years being on Singulair he looks very depressed for no reason. Trust me he has it good with no reason for the unhappy, dazed inattentive attitude. Thank God all of this has stopped since he's been off Singulair.

I don't want to sound contradictvie, howerer, I advise everyone to talk to their doctor before taking there children off of Singulair to determine if there's another asthma maintenance that can work. Remember asthma is a very, very serious condition and death can occur, so please talk to your doctors.
