my sister in law has been feeling fatigue and today she developed a high fever... my brother, her husband, is debating whether to wait the night to see how she feels or whether he should take her to the emergency center. We ve never had to deal with this kind of situation so I don t know what to tell him. I feel he should take her to the ER since all the urgent care centers are now closed. What is your suggestion?
Hi, see fatigue is not a big deal but as u said she is having high grade of fever then you are right u should take her to the emergency center where ICU facilities are available. Any case of high grade fever (above 103 F) should be taken seriously rather than doing self-medication or home remedies like sponging to reduce fever. Yes it will reduce fever but here we need to find out the cause I.e.diagnosis. So better to go to casualty.
