n boost

What a night! After posting my last post at 3.15am i thought all was good but approx at 4am my son woke up screaming in pain. He's temp had dropped down to approx 35 degress so phoned up A+e who said they couldn't do nothing for him as i needed to take him to heartlands or childrens hospital in Brum because they have more resources for young children. Drove down to heartlands with him screaming and crying in the car which were the longest 20 mins of my life! Got their and the staff were no where as near as good as Solihull hospital were i had been earlier and gave him some calpol and was told to wait for a doctor to see him. This was approx 4.30 am and i gave up waiting for a doctor at 7.40 am as my son's temp had stabled and bp was fine. When i had got to A+E, i was the only one their and they weren't even busy. After waiting 3 hours with 1 hour of trying to calm my son down, i got told the doctor would be starting his shift at 8am and i was 3rd in line so would probably have got seen to at around 9am! I decided to go home and see my GP in the morning which i did at 11 am and all he said is more calpol as well! Could not believe heartlands hospital making me wait over 3 hrs and not even having a doctor available..................its a fecking hospital for god's sake. Anyway seems a bit better now but will be montiring him closely today and hope fully get some kip later as i've been up all night. Thanks to everyone for their help and support.

Thanks bud, was a good read.

Thanks bud, seem's much better and he's getting back to his normal self slowly as the temp comes down.

Seems so mate. Just literally walked back in from A+E. Decided to go as the advice from the nhs direct nurse was'nt really helpfull and plus she didn't seem to think the temp was too much of a concern. A+E were brilliant and got his temp down to 37.9 within a hour and said they had a huge amount of a young children in to night as there are loads of viruse's affecting children. They used nurofen and calpol toghether which the nhs direct nurse said not to do!

Actually posted on here after the call to NHS direct because they made out that it was pretty normal to get a fever after these jabs. Posted here to see if people have had similar side effects with their kids and if it was normal. His temp seems to be settling now but running to A+E over something which may be considered normal is what strains the system and hence the slow responce times etc. So i thought i'd get some opinions from people who have already passed these stages in life. P.s...........nurse just phoned and told to moniter his temps over next 24 hrs.

He is quite aware and normal'ish and doesn't have a runny nose/cough etc. The temp has started to come down now and has dropped to 38.5, so heading in the right direction for now.

No rash and seems to be eating ok, just the temp.

Totally agree with the responce time bit mate, but the temps starting to lower very slightly. If it starts to go up again i am straight down to A+E no doubt. Don't like hospitals as all the ill people will be there spreading their owns bugs which i dont need! I have had this horrible bug going around myself and been pretty ill for over a week but getting better slowly. Just wanted to know if a feve like this is considered normal after a mmr jab?

Yes hes been having a small dose of calpol which i have now increased to max 10 ml. I have just given him this and will moniter his temp over the next 2 hours or so.

My 14 mth old boy had his mmr jabs on monday and has had a fever since tuesday. Thermometer was showing 40.7 and have been told not all are accurate. Phoned NHS direct but they are very busy and nurse will call back in 3-5 fecking hours! He seems extremely hot and flushed and being my first child dont know what is considered normal after these jabs or if he has caught some other bug. Any advice from parents here or people in the medical proffesion will be much appreciated until the nurse calls. Thanks in advance.

LOl!..............I'm lucky to dial 3 digits before my phone crashes!

u have a pm.

Maybe some engine bay and interior pics would be a good idea?

Because insurance companies think it makes u over confident, gives a false sense of security and that your more likely to push the car or roll it due to this!

Cam cover or do u mean the plastic spark plug cover?

I tried mate but it was too large. Pm me your email addy and i will send it through email or i'll try and use photobucket in the evening.
