    This happened to Jack when he was only 10 weeks old...turned out to be a urinary tract infection. Make sure the doctor checks for that and doesn't fob you off with "oh, its just a viral thing".

    If its not coming down and staying down with panadol, and you cant get to the GP I'd go to the hospital. I know the temp indicated for a fever changes with age, but Im not sure what it is for Gabs age, I think maybe 38.5

    QLD has a nurse on call type phone number you can ring to get advice over the phone if you havent already i think its 13 HEALTH or something like that.

    I hope she gets better soon!
