    Well went through something similar with my boys. The only option now would be ER and I know under 104 they'll tell me to hydrate and keep her comfortable.

    Gonna burn up her Dr office in the morning. She's sitting beside me, miserable but cracking jokes.

    Just needed to vent. Can't show worry, would stress her.. sorry off topic.

    You vent your big black helmet off, and keep her amused :wub:

    I'm an oxymoron, I love rowdy RDAs with unrowdy coils ;)

    I put a 2.5mm id 0.5*0.2mm 5 wrap coil in the dragon. 3mm id is much better, but that takes my resistance too high. So definitely try a finer/thinner fused clapton wire in it. I think the included coils are 26*3/38 ni80.

    The Dragon is nowhere near as smooth as the Recurve. The only thing similar, is it's made by the same company ;) This is has turbulent, yet slightly smooth airflow, deeper well, an extremely condensed chamber, and a hell of a lot of uniqueness about it :wub:
    Yeah the plan is to build it round about 0.5. The supplied one of 0.17 isn't for me. Way to hot and wild.

    Seriously becoming concerned. Emma has been around 101 all day, now with Tylenol at 102.7 is for the past half hour.

    Trying to decide what to do and needed to vent. Dr office has after hours but got tired of holding after 16 min

    Do you have urgent care clinics there? I like them better than the emergency room. I agree with @AngeNZ and would just take her if you can't get the fever to break. Maybe a cool bath would help also.

    Bath is already thought about.
    Shes dropping. We will probably take an hour or two nap once she's below 100.

    ER is very close and we have good insurance so no worries there.

    The joy is I'm getting a sore throat. Kids are great, aren't they....

    They are evil little virus incubators. On a serious note I hope your family comes through the other side happier and healthier with your new found antibodies ready to destroy the virus if it ever rears it’s ugly head in your house again.

    Can you rotate between Tylenol and children’s Motrin? I know I could when mine was that age but things change every year now and mine is 16.

    Tylenol never worked for fevers for us. Hopefully it will pass, make sure you and your wife take care of yourselves too.

    When you consider how many weeks of backlogged tickets they probably had I'm guessing it will take them several weeks to address them all.
    Probably right. I've heard really bad things about labour shortages throughout China - especially in the south where Shenzen is. Time for patience I spose

    When Alexander had scarlet fever the doctor avised us to give him both at the same time. The Tylenol gets the fever down faster and the Advil keeps it down longer. Worked quite well.
    That was so scary. We left to the doctor when his fever hit 103°. by the time we got to the ER his temp was 105.4°.

    Is that new? I'm jealous!
    Got it today from Jwill :D He only had one brass and we worked out a deal where he was good enough to hold it for me at a magnificent price. I managed to get it paid off faster than I thought. Fantastic performer. Everything I've heard is true.

    The Advil wasn't doing it anymore and baths weren't doing much either. I carried him into the ER and he was limp and listless and felt like he was on fire. They brought us straight into the doctor. He melted through 12 ice packs. He was a lot tougher about that than I would have been. They gave him a shot and prescription of antibiotics. He was much better after a couple days. I guess there was a small outbreak in our area of strep and scarlet fever. One kid who lived a couple miles up the road died. Didn't know that until I was talking to my mom afterwards.

    That's not good and as you say very worrying for you both. However on a positive note children often have a higher temperature than adults with the same virus/infection....

    I hope that you can get through to somebody to discuss it at your doctor's surgery soon. And if it gets any higher I would definitely be considering A and E.

    Sending hugs and positive thoughts. I'll be thinking of you :wub:

    Wow. I'm glad everything turned out ok.

    morning all.
    Just a heads up that the dotshell is now out of stock at Le Petit Vapoteur :(
    the dotaio is still on the list. if ecigone stocked them I'd probably have got one as opposed to the blotto yesterday. their new next day delivery appears to be taking two days. no biggie.
    in non vape news i got the resident evil movie box set for £2.07. think i already have three of the four. milla is rather shiny.
    in vape news I'm back on the clutch today for work. work that may be getting done from home in the foreseeable via VPN.
