[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What exactly do you mean by "high fever"? Any other symptoms, like vomiting or diarrhea? This all matters.[/quote] No it’s doesn't. A fever is a sign your body is fighting an infection. [/quote] Which is why it matters [I]whether it is actually a fever.[/I] If OP had posted a number, I wouldn't have asked. I've worked in a pediatrician's office. I swear to bejesus, this was an actual comment from a mom: "Well, Sally usually runs really low, so 100 is really high for her." [more questions] "Yes, I added a degree because I took it in her armpit." It's like pulling teeth to sort out what's going on. It's not technically a fever until it's a core temp of 100.4, but people make all sorts of interpretations on their own. Really, they do. You would not believe. [/quote]
