  • Maybe it's misspelled? What are her symptoms?

    My son was diagnosed with Adenovirus recently. He had a runny nose, cough, chest congestion, then really high fevers for 3 days and threw up while feverish. Does that sound like what she has?

    The important thing is to stay on the fevers. Alternate Advil and Tylonol every 3 hours. Put a cool wash rag on their forehead. (Not on top of the head it will trap in the heat.) Stay hydrated! Drink Electrolytes and water. With high fevers you sweat a lot, don't feel like eating and are tired. The important thing is to drink!
