DD has had a fever for 5 days

She just can not shake whatever it is she has. ?She is sleeping a ton and barely eating at all. ?As of Friday night, she is also coughing all the time. I am beyond frustrated. ?The pedi says it's a virus, but since I have so many things going on (bronchitis, tonsillitis, ear infection and sinus infection) he started her on an antiobiotic too. ?I am sure she has bonchitis, she sounds just like I do when she coughs. ?The sleeping is really freaking me out though, it's very unlike her.?

Re: DD has had a fever for 5 days

  • That sucks.  I would take her back to the Ped for sure.  Especially given that you have some super contagious stuff going on, yourself.
  • how high is the fever?  If its continuously over 103 I would definitely call.  Fevers makes kids sleep and thats probably what she needs the most right now.

    I'm sorry y'all are dealing with this...its very frustrating and I hope she feels better soon!
