Monday Jan 3rd, 2022. First day back to school after New Year holiday 2022, William had a fever so he had to stay home for 3 days. Besides fever he complained about the stomachache.
Tylenol 10 ml every 4 hours to decrease the fever. I also used the warm towels to put on his forehead, body and legs.
By Tuesday afternoon his temperature became normal. As for his stomachache, Dr. Chi said to monitor; she pressed on his stomach but he did not feel hurt so she said nothing is wrong.
While William was eating yogurt after dinner, he threw up! His forehead was warm to the touch. Soon later, his temp raised to 102.6 so I gave him 7.5 ml of the Children Tylenol Fever & Pain Reliever. His temp decreased later to 101.2 and he felt asleep. His eyes are still swollen and I put some Aquaphor cream on it.
Saturday Morning. William woke up around 7 AM. His temp risen back to 102.3 so I gave him another dose of Tylenol. He acted very normal later: play, watch ipad, run around, eat lunch. He played with water in our garden for about 15 minutes then I took him to shower and had lunch.
Saturday 2 PM. Another dose of Tylenol; he looked sleepy but somehow he could not sleep. Later afternoon around 5 PM, I fed him some sweet cake, smoothie yogurt, some french fries. Then we played for half an hour in the garden. He peed in his pants so I gave him another shower with warm water with hoping that could lower his temp.
8 PM, his temp rose again to 102 therefore another dose of Tylenol. He had a bottle of milk and felt asleep around 9:30 PM.
Hopefully he’ll feel better tomorrow so that I can go to school. In order to go to school one has to be fever free for at least 24 hours.
