DD1 (4) has had a temperature all week. I took her to the doctor on Tuesday and he said 'virus' but come back if still feverish by end of week. Today I went back and saw another doc who said 'virus, no sign that antibiotics are needed, but if she got worse then maybe and let us know if temperature won't come down or she isn't drinking'
Well this afternoon she keeps falling asleep (I can't convey how unlike her this is) and bursting into tears and won't eat or drink more than a few sips.
I can't decide whether to think, 'she's just feeling crap and will get better', or 'this is worse and we should go back to gp before weekend'.
Can anyone help me get perspective on this? Am I being silly and worrying too much? Maybe as I haven't got anyone to talk to about it so am finding it hard to judge!
thank you.

I'm probably being pathetic... but should I take dd1 to the doctor again?
