Cody fall sick

This is the first time that Cody got high fever. On Wednesday, 13th July, he woke up from his afternoon nap normally is 7pm plus. I just reached home and he saw me, he said he wants to continue sleep. I told him no problem. When I touched him, I felt so hot on his forehead.

I quickly took out the digital thermometer & measured his temperature. It's 38.9 degree. Wow, it's high fever. My mil & I brought him to the nearest PD.

The nurse gave him bullet (ibuprofen) on the spot while waiting for his turn to see doctor. Doctor gave him antibiotic, paracetamol, cough & flu medicines.

Cody temperature went down after half and hour.

The next day, he's fever still maintain on 39 ~ 40.4 degree :( We sponged, bath, fed 4 hourly paracetamol also no use.
Albert & I brought him to KKH about 11pm plus on 14th July. The doctor said he's fine only has high fever. It's maybe caused by viral illnesses or if fever still continue more than 5 days need to do blood test. That will be caused by dengue fever. The nurse fed Cody ibuprofen and need to monitor about one hour to see the temperature went down or not. Lucky fever went down a bit to 38.7 degree and he can go home :)
Doctor gave him two bottles of ibuprofen & two bottles of paracetamol.
The next day, Cody feeling better but the virus spread to my mil & me :( Both of us sick.
