Re:how do you know if your child is sick or dumping a virus?

Those symptoms sound like H1N1 my daughter just got over it, but has

a lingering cough that could last 2 weeks, Low fever, little appetite

and slept a lot. If it is that, the fever lasts 3 to 5 days. our doc

did not ask that I bring her in as long as she did not get worse or

have trouble breathing. We had to really push water and it was hard

because we think her throat was sore so we gave her motrin one time

so she would eat and drink better. After the fever stopped on day 5

she would be up and playing, then get tired all of a sudden. We are

on day 8 since first fever and she is normal for energy and eating

again. stuffy nose gone just the darn dry cough. My daughter got

scarlet fever last November when we started OSR and her DAN thinks we

got the strep out of her gut with it. Now that was awful, the H1N1

without complications is no big deal. good luck.

Her cough is not bad at all and it is a very mild fever. Quite honestly, she

runs a low grade fever every time we change supplements so I'm not convinced it

is H1N1, but do I take her to the doctor?

Would they do anything for it anyway?

Thanks,
