Tuesday update
It was definitely good to have a diagnosis yesterday. However, his doctor told me yesterday that he wants him off the fever-reducing medicine ASAP. Told me no more than a dose on Monday night and then the last on Tuesday morning. We held off last night until 8:30 when his fever was up to 103.1. Gave him the "last" dose of Tylenol this morning at 6:00 to combat another round of chills and increasing temperature. Please pray with me that he doesn't need more at the end of this 6- to 8-hour period. (Advil is not recommended for use in patients with Dengue.) This fever needs to break today and break permanently--the doctor said his liver is beginning to show signs of inflammation (hepatitis.)
