    • High Fever Again

      Emily gave me another fright. She has high fever and a fit. She had her suppository and fever medication, but that didn’t stop the fever. It surges up and she had another attack. I had to send her to the hospital again. She is fine now and discharged.

      The doctor said it is probably due to viral infection because he ran a few test like dengue and oral test. All were negative. She had high fever for 4 days and today it was gone. I stayed in the hospital with her throughout the 4 nights. Last night, a baby checked in to the same room. She was one noisy baby, sleep during the daytime and make noise during the nighttime. Emily slept through it but I hardly can get any.

      Funny conversation with the doctor:

      Doc: I will let her continue with her antibiotic. (prescribed by the paed on Monday before she was admitted). I do not have to change the antibiotic, most cases it is due to viral infection and antibiotic will not be necessary.

      Me: That’s true.

      Doc: She is still having fever but not as high. Actually I didn’t do anything, she is healing on her own.

      Me: Does that mean I don’t have to pay you since she is doing it by herself. :giggles: *nurses were also giggling*

      Doc: The insurance will worry about that.

      Me: Yeah I am sure.

      According to the doc, since Emily had 3 attacks of fit, the next one would be 4%. I am praying that she will not get it again. It is horrible to see another fit and there is nothing I can do to stop the fit. Although by now I am experience in handling it. :pray:

    1. Jess and I was online last nite and we were wondering where you were. I’m so glad Emily is getting well. It must have been a difficult 4-nite for everyone.

    3. Hope Emily get well soon.Aiyo! Y so many kids having fever oh,my Cruz had been on,off,on off for three days lo.Still taking medication!! Haih! Hope all this nightmare will get over soon.

    4. Poor Emily! Raising kids really a tired job..
      I am tired and sad too when seeing my Jo takes so many medicines..:cry:

    5. Aiyo… fever also ah? must be a trend. Most kids having fevers. My raelynne had high fever but luckily didnt have any fits but her eye balls were moving left to right right to left.

    6. i think only those parent who had been gone thru their chilren having fit when having fever will be very worry when they having fever.

      My son also admitted to hospital last month due to high fever and having the fit. myself also very scare when see my son having fit. that’s y i always say, son fever; i crazy.

      my son already had 2 times fit and i hope it doesn’t happen again…

    7. Poor Emily and poor mommy who has to take care of her. Is the cause of the fit due to heatiness (inside her)? Guess u have to give her lots of ‘liong sui’ (herbal tea). I do boil herbal tea for my family every weekend. And I’m giving them fruit juices too. Guess u have to advise Emily’s babysitter too on what she feeds Emily. I’m :pray:ing for Emily too.

    8. Oh my.. Where could she have gotten her viral infection from?
      It must have been a fright for you.
