    Is he teething?

    I think its a good idea to take him to hospital if the fever hasn't dropped by now...

    hope your DS gets better soon. 1 week seems quite long for a fever.

    Let us know how it goes. Goodluck.

    I'm sorry to hear that he's no better hun. I agree that it sounds like time for a trip to the hospital. They might not find anything wrong, but even if it gives you some peace of mind it's worth it

    thanks guys, I think I will head up to the womens and childrens, its just so frustrating to not know what is wrong, I just feel so helpless and useless to get him better.
    His temp is back down to 37 now, he is sleeping quite peacefully at the moment, so thats a good thing.
    so far we have only had about a 12 hr stretch of no fever....in 6 days!

    Maybe get them to give him a chest xray? a 7 year old i know had a high fever and lethargic for 7 days and antibiotics didn't help. They diagnosed viral pneumonia via a chest xray.
