Yes, and vice-versa. I see more and more kids, younger and younger, who
have reflux and then, develp asthma-like symptoms. When the reflux
self-corrects around 1-2 years old, the asthma-like symptoms
disappear....Why??? Don't know.... Anyone on Lactnet who would know the
origin of this?

I had a chiropractor tell me something was misaligned in the cervical
spine following truamtic birth for example, and that both syndromes
could disappear if treated soon enough.

One one my friend tried and it worked....?????

I don't know more since I am a perinatal nurse and not in pediatrics but
I thought you would appreciate this.
