Well as luck would have it, I was on the phone with my mother when I read this.
She's a retired nurse.
She says if this temp has run any length of time before breaking, don't wait for it to go up higher, just go.
I see from another post that you have some infections going on.Originally Posted by theimp98

Then you did the right thing in going. They probably didn't send blood cultures on you to determine the type of bacteria they were dealing with and didn't have you on the right ones. No all antibiotics treat everything.Originally Posted by theimp98
I have been on ,antibiotics for over week and things where not getting better, but had been getting worse.
I would definately go to the hospital now. That is not good. But if you decide to hold off going to the hospital, there are a couple of things to try. You could use a cool damp cloth on your forehead to help break the fever.Originally Posted by theimp98
