Help. dd2 just diagnosed by the doctor. She has all the symptons and she asked if I wanted a blood test. Since it wont make any difference to the way she's treated I declined. The gp said that if she got any worse I was to take her straight to hospital. I asked her what "worse" meant so I could judge but was only given very vague advice. Currently dd2 has a temp of 39, covered in spots, is very floppy but does react eventually, has been sick, has a hacking cough, and a streaming nose. I'm currently giving her medised and watered down milk (she's hasn't got an appetite and at the moment my main concern is getting water into her as she's sweating a lot). Anyone have any advice?
Just for the record I was going to give her her mmr at 18 months .
