Fever is back.... more Tylenol to the rescue.

 

Damn flu is like a boomerang!

 

Shoot, what the heck. Heard flu shots haven't been helpful much this year. Did he get a shot?

 

We’ve never done the shots. I’ve been running a super low grade fever, everyone I know is sick right now, the end is near.

 

Get him swab tested and on some Tamiflu if he's positive

 

My wife won’t give him that, the doctor backed her up. Apparently I have no say. :-/

• Tamiflu may rarely cause serious mental/mood changes. This may be more likely in children. Tell your doctor of any signs of unusual behavior, including confusion, agitation, or self-injury.

 

I've had the whole family on it more than once. Zero issues...other than shortening the flu by 3-4 days

 

I married a hippie.

 

Understood brother.

 

Some good news...

 

Do you have "Cold FX"? That works for over the counter stuff. I double up on Vit. C cuz of other Meds.

 

She’s giving him echinacea, elderberry, and lots of vitamin C. He seems fine as long as he has Tylenol in him, no vomiting.

 

I would definitely alternate between Tylenol and Motrin. Don't want too much acetaminophen in his system

 

Certainly no easy fix but some "natural" stuff works like honey for a cough & good 'ol chicken soup. Then there's the silver bullet, Garlic.

NEVER, mix Tylenol with ASA.

 

Pretty common practice in kids to alternate the 2. But Motrin is a NSAID....not an ASA.

 

We are, the ibuprofen isn’t working very well.

 

Still safer than filling him full of Tylenol the entire time

 

Yep, gotta save the liver.
