Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 Just some food for thought- unless a fever gets REALLY high, it is actually one of the body's best ways of dealing with viruses & infection. And of course, if you're using Virastop, you are trying to let the body deal with the viruses, no? A naturopathic doctor I saw actually drove his kids' fevers UP with a special tea when they were sick. Uncomfortable, I know. But if you bring the fever down, the body can't do what it needs to do to take care of the issue. Unless the fever gets above at least 104, it isn't dangerous, just uncomfortable. I had fever of 105.5 & febrile seizures a few years ago with a hospital infection & the doctors & nurses at the Mayo Clinic were fairly unconcerned (my husband was panicked, thinking I could suffer brain damage). They said it would have to go higher to have that effect.

The rest of the time the fever raged. I was afraid to give him more than the recommended dose of Motrin. I now have Belladonna and I'm hoping we're a bit more successful with it if the need arises. We had this happening even after we stopped the Virastop and were just using a small amount of other antiviral. One of the many reason that our buildup when we start the antiviral protocol again will be very, very slow.
