    Well I'm home and let's just say what a bunch of knob those people are!!
    First I was asked what made me think my dd had a fever? Hello it was 39.8 when I got there!!
    Then like i was meant to know this but apparently no number is too high in a fever???
    Dd was seen and sent home and told to go to the gp??

    ??? Wow, that sounds really weird. I'm guessing they checked her ears, and throat?
    It could be a virus, my DS2 was 12 mths when he had a high temp, no other symptoms & came down with gastro a few days later.. we've had a few episodes like that... I think you did right getting her checked anyway.
    I know what temp my kids usually run at around 36.5), I would class anything over 37 a temp and over 38 gets a trip to the doctor.

    Hope she's better soon
