Er: If your child is that sick, get to an er, and don't leave unless your child is admitted or sees a specialist. If you can't see one ther get tomamchildrens hospital.

Get checked: If the child is having breathing difficulty, chest pain, shortness of breath, wheezing, or increased work of breathing, she needs to be seen asap. Heart rate will increase in people having an asthma attack but heart rate can also increase for many other reasons. Get her seen.
