My almost 6 year old is sick again
November 6th she started getting sick with a fever..No cough or sniffles, just fever. Than on the 7th she added throwing up and stomach ache to the list of symptoms. Her fever seemed to break that evening and she started to look and act better. Than Saturday morning she woke up and started vomiting and for the next 4 hours she continued. We took her into the ER because she could not keep anything down. They gave her a med to help her stop throwing up. Than she had to be able to keep down fluids over the next 3 hours and she did. We went home and she continued to be able to keep liquids down and get better. She was so much better on Sunday and was in school Monday.
Now yesterday we noticed her coughing, stuffy nose, congestion. Looked like she was getting a cold. This morning she woke up looking pale and tired coughing more and sounding like her cold is getting worse. Noon started a low grade fever (99) and this evening it is 101.5 and we are starting the Tylenol and I have been putting vicks on her chest to help with the congestion.
So because I worry, I am worried. So soon to get sick again?
Anyone have this happen to their kids and is there anything I should be concerned about?
