ublx | dmb_: google seems to think high fever is around 104-105F | 18:31 |
ublx | also seems to think high fever is time to call for help | 18:31 |
ublx | ultimately if you don't know the answer, you should ask someone who does; ie a doctor/etc | 18:32 |
dmb_ | yeah, only problem is doctors arn't open at 11pm :(, but might set up something today to mention last night | 18:33 |

ublx | these places have phone numbers, in case you're struggling to decide for yourself whether to go | 18:36 |
ublx | some results on this question mark high fever as beginning at 103, and you got there, you say. so you had no leeway really | 18:37 |
dmb_ | yeah | 18:38 |
dmb_ | I always avoid ER at all costs, unless really needed, by have some telemedicine thing with a doctor 24 hours it looks, might be good to see what they say | 18:38 |
dmb_ | but right now, its at 100,4 again, only at night | 18:38 |
dmb_ | don't wish covid on to anyone | 18:39 |
ublx | if it was me i'd be phoning one of the pre-emergency numbers (NHS24 in the UK) to clarify what view they take. and if it's anything remotely sketchy they end up just telling you to go to the emergency room, in my experience. 103 with no leeway is entering/entered sketchy territory | 18:39 |
ublx | have to remind you, this isn't a medical advice channel; so they only thing we can really say on such points is, if in doubt talk to the professionals | 18:40 |

LjL | dmb_, as far as i know 103F is still within the "not life threatening" range, but also, here paracetamol (acetaminophen) is widely advised for COVID when fever is present | 19:21 |
LjL | so if you have and know that you can tolerate acetaminophen and the fever gets higher and you can't go to ER, consider that | 19:22 |
LjL | (if you've never taken it, don't take it for the first time, maybe) | 19:22 |
dmb_ | yeah, unforuntely for some reason acetaminophen wasn't lowering temp, so switched to ibuprofen which seemed to lower it | 19:22 |
dmb_ | maybe it was, made me very very very warm instead of cold | 19:23 |
LjL | ibuprofen is generally stronger although acetaminophen is typically good for lowering fever. it's kind of important not to take ibuprofen on an empty stomach, though | 19:23 |
dmb_ | oh hah, that might explain my upset stomach this morning :) | 19:23 |
LjL | acetaminophen doesn't care what is or isn't in your stomach, but most other NSAIDs do, and ibuprofen certainly does | 19:24 |
LjL | try to eat some biscuits or something at least if you have to take it outside of meals | 19:24 |
dmb_ | yeah, time to leave low carb diet until healed :) | 19:24 |
