Guest guest Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Hi , Just wanted to chime in, Dasia is doing the same thing, minus the fever (OUCH!). I really hope Autumn gets better and drinks! I know the feeling. Over here, this flu came just 2 days after being well enough to eat again, since her last cold. This is the 2nd day, third night and finally she's keeping pedialyte down. She woke up with dried out lips, I was ready to take her in, if she didn't keep her drink down this morning. So she's done good today for fluid. Seems like for the season now I'll be dreading each visit for weight check with the nutr. I know how you feel about wanting the tube. Just a couple weeks left for you guys!! I thought we were gaining some ground too, Dasia gained 12oz last month since I found this strawberry supplement drink that she loves. And now, if this is a sign of what's to come, it will be just like last year, and she didn't gain any weight during winter. Hope Autumn is feeling better soon!! anderkat3 wrote: Well, yet again another virus has attacked her and she is so sick, fever of 104.5 last night now about 101.5, coughing, I can't get meds in her today, I did last night, she throws them up or won't drink the small drink I mix it in. The tricks of syringes or anything don't work, I got thrown up on from it. I did get a fudgcicle and couple sips and thats it. She had all kinds of tests earlier because she looks so bad but of course, just a virus that we all have mildly is just attacking her...I had my doubts of the g-tube before but yet again, now she is sick I would do one right now if I could! 2 weeks, maybe this will never happen again. I don't even want to weigh her. If she wakes up and suddenly drinks a huge cup of something then we won't go, otherwise we are outta here. I can't even test ketones, there is no urine. Her blood sugar was 86 earlier,not that bad, couldn't tell by looking at her. She looks horrible and is lethargic. I am waiting if my husband can be home soon or I will take all 4 kids, don't want to do that though. Doc said to take her asap if no fluids, please wake up and drink!!!!!!!!! mom to Autumn RSS 21 mos, Summer, Ocean, Skye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
