Well, well, Ern lost the battle again! Sigh...
Fever gone up to 37.7 yesterday evening and by the time we reached PD's clinic this morning, it has reached 38.3! Immediately, PD gave suppository to bring down the fever.
We failed to get Ern's urine to determine if the fever is caused by viral infection because she kept on moving. The urine bag "terkeluar" and didn't store the urine properly.
While waiting for Ern to pee, some parents told us almost 80% of children ward are admission due to viral infection and fever. PD also said now it's "dengue" season.
Hopefully, Ern is safe from dengue and just normal fever. Originally, we thought she could be teething. However, we see no sign of teeth.
Ha, Ern will still be "boh geh" (no teeth in Hokkien) for now...

Hope Ern is getting better when you read this. Anyway, Bryan's PD always tell us that teething does not cause high fever. The body temp may be slightly warm but it should never exceed 38 deg. Anything more could be a sign of infection and must consult a PD immediately.
Anyway, in Bryan's case, what the PD said is true. Bryan never have fever when teething nor for any of his jabs.
i hope it's not dengue...hope she gets well soon! after i last contracted dengue..I am so paranoid!
Is it maybe due to hot weather recently? Hopefully it's not dengue..
Hope and pray Ern will get well soon.
Hope that Ern will be ok soon! Poor little thing.
