He has a chesty cough and cold, and a temperature of 40 degrees. He seems okay though (i.e. not listless, lethargic or miserable)..., alert, ate his breakfast and a little lunch
I've given calpol and he has a docs appointment at 18.10 tonight.
Given that his temp is 40 degrees am I under -reacting? Can he wait until 18.10?, or does this need immediate medical attention?
