He’s down with a bad throat infection
This morning has been a crazy one. Fetched PiggyBeng to the airport as he is going on a biz trip to Manila till Friday. That means, we will be alone again for the next three days without PiggyBeng…. just Darrius and myself. What worried me most is, Darrius has been having fever since Saturday. His highest temperature was 38.9 degree Celsius recorded on Saturday morning.
We brought him to our regular GP on Saturday afternoon and he was prescribed some antibiotic and a course of other related medicine for his cough and fever. We thought after a day or two the fever will subside but no… it comes and goes every night. Therefore, I was left without much choice, I brought him to the paed after dropping PiggyBeng at the airport this morning.
We have to wait for more than an hour as we arrived around 10+am, the paed just went up to the ward for his regular round! What a total waste of time. I did not want to come home first as it can be difficult getting a parking lot at the hospital. So waited and the consultation lasted less than 5 minutes!
Paed said Darrius is down with a bad throat infection which caused him to cough and the on/off fever. Was lucky it was nothing serious as I suspected dengue initially as his fever never seems to go away but no apparent red flushes. Quite relief upon knowing he’s not in any serious situation. Came back and thought of feeding him some oats but the fella was soooo tired that he nodded off on the sofa while waiting. Poor chap!

Poor dear…throat infection is yucky for everyone…adults included. If he doesn’t mind honey, you can try Manuka honey. I hear it really works wonders.
honey are great, but how old is darious? coz i was told by doctor not to give baby honey, the digestive system cannot accept it.

Get well soon Darrius. Maybe u can feed him some vanila ice cream to soothe the throat? Always the throat infection and cause the fever.
Ya, I agree with Annie, ice cream does work sometimes. Get well soon Darrius. Mei Mei is also still coughing. Hai….never end one.

The worse about throat infection is the yoyo temperature. The highest Ryan recorded was 39.6! But don’t worry.. it should last no more than 3 days then will become more stable below 38. Speedy recovery Darrius.
