I posted in the symptoms section a couple of days ago that my daughter is poorly with a cold. She had scarlet fever a couple of weeks ago had 10 days of penicillin which she finished Monday seemed fine until Wednesday night and got sent home from school on Thursday. I took her to the dr that evening and she had a temp of 40. The dr thinks it's viral and ride it out with calpol.
She's been on and off the last few days she's got a bit of a temperature and definitely has a horrible blocked nose. Today has been awful first thing she was really good then this afternoon she's cried a lot but when I ask her what's wrong she says she doesn't know or if I ask if anything hurts she says no. She's drank quite a lot of water and milk but has refused to eat since lunch then all she had was some crisps, half a biscuit and some fruit.
She's asleep again now but seems every time she turns over she wakes up a little and cries, it's breaking my heart that I can't help her. I've tried rubbing Vicks on her and say in a steamy bathroom. It doesn't help that she won't blow her nose. My other half thinks I should give it a couple more days before taking her back to the Drs but I'm gonna call them tomorrow
I'm not sure what the point in this post is I'm just feeling pretty useless at the min
