Starve a cold feed a fever, isnt that the old saying??? unless its the other way around...he needs to sweat it out, so my advise is sweat pants, socks sweatshirt and a big blanket, maybe hell be better by tomorrow..

He has 102. Last night he sweated the sheets up & changed his t shirt 3 times from sweating.
I gave him soup, made him drink gatorade and gave him tylenol

Re: FH has fever

That's sounds like the flu...maybe you should take him to the doc in the morning.

Re: FH has fever

jenn, sounds like you're doing everything you should be. Just keep an eye on the fever.
Does it subside when he takes the tylenol/ibuprofen?

Re: FH has fever

Sweat it out???

I am imfamous for running a fever. I could have a simple cold and I'll run 103 in a blink of an eye. I have been hospitalized for it

Every time I have had a fever my doc has told me to keep my body cool to help bring the temp down.

lots of tylenol, cold water, and to keep cool.
