DS is currently on ear infection #9 (!) and he doesn't run a fever with the ear infection unless he has something along with it (one time was hand and foot and it was 103 for 2 days and another time he had primary herpetic gingivostomatitis and that fever lasted for 4-5 days and peaked at 104.5!!)
When we took him in yesterday his temp was 97.7 and he had a double ear infection.
We are finishing ear infection #7 (his third after getting tubes) and he doesn't get a fever. We never knew he had them before tubes until we took him in for something else, like pinkeye. Now we know right away because the tubes drain out all the gunk.
