question about ds

[stuffing]

ds was ill with a cold then he woke up crying in pain and was up all night he would drift off and wake up hysterical then drift off again
then for two days he was zapped of energy didnt eat much just lay on the sofa all day then last night he had a raging temp so gave him calprofen

he was boiling all over except his feet which were like ice and looked a bit blue
now tonight his top lip looked a bit blueish not all just the very tip of his top lip
i know i should off taken him to docs
but i was just thinking he had cold/flu
has anyone elses dd/ds had anything like this
sorry for the long post thanks

ring NHS direct.just in case.

What colour is the inside of his mouth? How fast is he breathing? Is there anything odd about it?

To be honest with you, you do sound worried so I think your best bet will be to give NHS Direct a call and get him seen by the out of hours GP.

0845 4647 i think or NHS direct website.

whereabouts do you live? i think there are different numbers depending on your location.

hes breathings fine and his inside of mouth is pink he just looks washed out and all bunged up i will put ds2 to bed and give them a ring thanks alot

i live in coventry, warwickshire

I'd take him to A&E if you can. Not wanting to alarm you but cold hands and feet together with high fever and listlessness can be symptoms of meningitis/septicemia. I always think it's best to check things out to be on the safe side.
Good luck and hope he's better soon.

i'm sorry.can't seem to find a local number for you.however,if i were you...not wishing to preach or anything...i'd ring your local hospital and ask to speak to a nurse/doctor.they may suggest you bring him in but at least they can put your mind at rest. really hope everything's ok. they're always a big worry aren't they?
