Guest guest Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hi all, We just started with Dr. G 3 weeks ago and when we returned home we started valtrex. My son started to get sick last Friday with a bad cold, continued through the weekend, got better, went back to school and got another strain or the flu on top of it. He's been really sick since yesterday.low grade fever, really stuffy, coughing, obviously achy (he can't tell me this), he gets up and then lays right back down and is very lethargic. Today he vomited all morning. He's only been sick a few times in his life and never this bad. We will probably only get one dose of valtrex in him today. Just wondering (since it's the weekend and I can't call the office), if this will mess up the whole valtrex protocol? Please let me know what you all think. Thanks! kathi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 12, 2011 Report Share Posted February 12, 2011 Hi Kathi, Sorry to hear your little one is so sick. There seems to be a lot of it going around. Dr. G has always told me to get as many of the meds in as possible. My son vomited over a 12 hour span last week.his office told me a clear liquid diet for the first 24 hours afterwards but to still give him his meds. If I gave him a dose but then he vomited, I just waited until the next time he was due to give him another dose. Hope your son is feeling better soon!
