DS still asleep, what to do?

[ClutchingPearls]

DS is 15 months, been generally a bit grumpy for a week. Last night he was especially grumpy so calpol'ed him at put him to bed, he had a slight temperature. He hasnt woken since.

Waiting for an "urgent" call from GP nurse which will be this afternoon or possibly this evening.

Nothing specific, slight temp, was occasionally pulling at ears, decreased appetite. But he's completely un rousable, changed nappy with DD1 and 2 in the room jumping about and he just slept. He obviously is responsive because I've got a few oz of water into him and nurophen in him. But I cant wake him any more than that. So he's been asleep for 17 hours looks poorly but not collapsed. Occasional small cry but by the time I've got to his door he's asleep again.

So MNers should I call the GPs again, NHS direct or am I just wittling about nothing and let him sleep it off. DD2 has complex medical needs and I'm always on the ball with her getting her seen as appropriate. But a normal "abit unwell and sleeping child" has completely thrown me.

Good luck! Hope it is nothing too serious :(

agree that it seems shocking your GP wouldnt ring back in a timely fashion for an unrousable child!? I am a worrier and would have been straight down to A&E

[PacificDogwood]

Oh gosh, so glad to see 999 has been called!
I read the thread backwards hoping to see that.

Hope all is well. There is no such thing as an overreaction with an unrousable child. Thinking of you all x.

[weegiemum]

My dh just called to check that you have called an ambulance.

Please let us know how it goes!

[BluelightsAndSirens]

Totally shocking behaviour from the doctors, I truly hope your son recovers well.

The call taker should have advised 999 in the very first call, poor child was unrousable for a very long time

[SouthernComforts]

So pleased you called an ambulance, hope it is nothing serious , bloody gp's office should have told you to do that.
Better to be safe than sorry.

Fingers crossed for you and little one.

I work in OOH In Scotland and our protocol is to phone an ambulance of patient unconscious, not responding or not breathing.

A child sleepier than usual will be high priority.

Glad you phoned ambulance, hope all is ok, op.
