Lovely morning chit-chat September 2025

Good for you Ellie you have to stand up for yourself.  I spent yesterday in hospital.  My temperature was 38.1 and have cough and cold symptoms.  Had IV antibiotics.  Looks like respiratory infection.  Sent me home last night with oral antibiotics.  Temperature this morning is 38 not sure what to do.  Maybe just try paracetamol to bring it down.  Hope everyone has a good day.  We are supposed to go to Portugal next Saturday, hoping to be better by then .

Oh Lee so sorry to hear that. If it were me, I would definitely try Paracetamol first and see what happens

Yes, you just take something to get the temperature down, stay patient and don't worry. Everything will work out fine

Hi Lee2

Hope there has been  little   improvement regrading your temperate, and you fill abit more y ease.

Sorry I have only just seen this  Leelaloo  I hope you are feeling better now, and the paracetamol has helped. If the temperature continues into the evening then please call 111 for advice. X 

I'm sorry to hear this my friend, and don't be too concerned as a 38.1C temperature is considered a low grade fever, and your Dr will have taken everything into account and it's unlikely they would have sent you home, if they didn't think home was a safe place to be, as the guys say paracetamol and monitoring and lots of rest while your body fights the infection, and remember its normal for most people's temperature to rise a little through the day, so compare readings by what time there taken.

Hi Leelaloo  sorry you have a temperature and have to go to the hospital. If they have done the blood test and discharged you with oral antibiotics, then it is probably not too bad. I had this happen to me twice. First time, the temperature was 39.5C and my neutrophil level was below 1.0. I was in hospital for 3 days. I had IV antibiotics and paracetamol to bring the temperature down. 2nd time my neutrophil level was above 2 so was discharged on the day with oral antibiotics. I took paracetamols daily until it was not required.

Hope yours is under control. But if you are feeling worse and temperature is not controlled, you should call the emergency oncology line.

Take care x

Morning Winston, my human pet has been very unwell for the last few days. I am just lying close to keep an eye on her. She has to go to Hospital this afternoon to see what they are going to do. Sorry for the short message.
