No, temp still wasn't down this morning :( It was a long, long night. We went to the Walk-In Clinic at Treehouse this morning and he was diagnosed with strep...apparently his throat is so infected it's actually bleeding :( Makes my heart hurt!
We're home now, antibiotics in tow. Still alternating motrin/tylenol and hoping his fever stays down until the antibiotics start working.
Ouch. Jon just said last night that strep is going through his office, so I guess it's going around right now. I had it last year (twice) and it was painful. I'm sure the dr. told you, but I reinfected myself w/ my toothbrush, so be sure to switch out Will's. It's something I didn't even think about!
Oh poor Will! To ease your mommy heart I had strep a lot as a kid always had super high temps and sore throat but I don't remember most of those episodes I just remember getting to eat popsicles and pudding! Plus once you've been on antibiotics for a day or two you are back to normal.

Poor kiddo! I hope those meds work soon and he can get some relief. Hugs to you both!

I hope the meds kick in quickly!
