How’s he doing now OP?
Not great! I'm so worried. High fever w Tylenol (but only one pill) and no interest in food. It's been 48 hours. He hasn't thrown up since thjs morning but did have diarrhea again. Taking zofran. Kind of listless or maybe just tired. Burning up. Maybe it's flu and test was wrong!? I also have anxiety lol shocker. Thanks for checking in
What’s the high fever? You don’t necessarily have to treat a fever just to lower it.
Honestly, you need to take a deep breath. He probably has norovirus. The flu test wasn’t wrong and it doesn’t matter anyway, he’s too late for antivirals. 48 hours is not long to be sick, he will get better, I promise. Just let him rest.
Thanks. Even if it was flu the ped didn't recommend Tamiflu w his GI symptoms. His fever was maybe 102.4 or 7 in one ear but hard to say. Felt burning up. Put a cold rag in head but then he said take it off and now he's asleep.

did you take him to the hospital? Dr?
I took him to ER today for IV fluids and anti nausea meds. He was little better for a bit but now just high fever and in bed not moving much.

Might be too late in the evening now, but you may be able to get him an Rx for Zofran to help with the nausea. Maybe a doctor on call and a 24 hour pharmacy?

Tylenol Ok. Would avoid ibuprofen, esp if still vomiting and irritated stomach.

Not GI AND fever. One or the other. So I am unsure about giving fever reducing meds while he's vomiting. Obv I would for normal fever
