Hi Im new on here and worried about my two year old. It started on saturday he was fine running around playing with his brother then all of sudden he came and sat next to me red hot!
His temperature was 39.4 and we gave him calpol but it went to 39.9 and stayed there for around 2 hours. He was very sleepy and lathagic. I rang NHS direct and got a appointment for the out of hours doc. But no sooner did I put the pone down he got up and was back to normal no temperature and again running around with his brother. I cancelled the doctors appointment.
Then about two hours later he was red hot again this time with the runs. I took to the docs and they said a viral infection and a tummy bug and told me to keep dosing him up.
He had a good nights sleep saturday but woke up red hot on sunday. Same again very poorly then all of sudden back to normal health.
Last night sunday he was up all night temp at 40.0 but he was complaining that he was cold. Took him doctors again this morning but of course by time I got there he was fine. and he said he seems happy and just give him plenty of water.
Now even after nurofen and calpol his temperature is up at 39.8 again!!!!
Sorry for the essay but very worried about him he is never ill he has no rash just hot to the touch and at minute he crying in a sleepy state. Don't know what more to do.
My baby daughter has just come out of hospital as she had some text done and worried se has brought home a bug.
