dd woke up this am feeling VERY hot and very lethargic. This has come out of nowhere so very dramatically i carried her into the doctors saying - "someone must see her now".
Doctor saw her and she has a chest infection on right side and a fever. She has the "blurts" sorry can't spell the D word and so is now taking banana amoxillin, calpol and a linctus for her cough.
He says I should sponge her in tepid water every half hour to control the temperature and give her plenty of fluids. I hae been doing this throughout the day. She is not eating - had a bowl of porridge at 10.30 but nothing since.
Is there anything else I should be doing?
