this sounds just like my 2 year old's condition. She had a high temp at the dr's when Iwent to ask about her conjunctivitis. Just left and she had a convulsion (it was her third) Anyway, that was 12 days ago. She had a really chesty cough and the gp said she had an ear infection. She prescribed antibiotics which also fought the chest infection a bit, but she still has a cough. Took her back to a diff dr on Fri who listened to her chest and said she was fine. She's had high temp all weekend on and off again and at Nursery this afternoon - she was up to 39.2. Am so worried she'll have another convulsion. It's so hard to decide what to do cos most of the time she seems ok and is happ yplaying and then her temp shoots up. Am now thinking it must be some other undectable infection. Sorry long post...!
