and she developed a dry cough
She didn't go to school on Monday and I took her to emergency...she had no fever at the time(she had taken a tylenol) and they said "virus, let it run it's course"...did a throat swab in case of strep
Last night her temperature went up again to about 102.8...I gave her tylenol for the night...
This morning her temperature is 103.3...it's getting higher...this is a long time for a virus...
Any ideas? Should I take her in again...anything I should try? This is the highest fever either of my kids has ever had and I am scared for her.
Her only symptom is a cough which is a bit looser this morning.
