Rayyan has a fever since Saturday and is not fit to go to school today. He has a cold but that's almost gone now. The fever I checked this morning was at 37.5C. Good thing we went and get our cold and fever medicine last Saturday when we went for Rayhana's 3-month checkup.
Rayhana had the "5-serangkai" jab as Dr Musa put it (or was it 3-serangkai).. the DTap & Polio & Hib 2nd dose. On top of that she also had her 2nd dose of Rotavirus vaccination. When we arrived at Dr Musa's clinic, he was attending patient #32 and we were #65. So we went out to One Utama to get some presents for Arifah (Rayyan's cousin) whose birthday we celebrated yesterday.
When we came back from One Utama, the number was at 49.. so we had lunch at the hospital and thought of just going to Dr Azizi's clinic to get Rayyan's fever and cold medicine... saja nak simpan stock.
We always have with us Paracetamol syrup (ubat demam pink tu).. which is Rayyan's favorite.., either Clarytine or Phenagan syrup for his selsema, and Voltaren bullets (ubat buntut tu).. and of course the thermometer. So if Rayyan has a fever... we just follow the same routine everytime without going to see the doctor... (i got Dr Azizi's approval for doing that... hehe). So if Rayyan punya badan panas sikit, we check with the thermometer.. if more than 37C, it's paracetamol syrup every 6 hours and if the temperature gets to 38.5C and above, it's Voltaren every 8 hours.. and at the same time, bukakkan baju dia, and bukak aircon and kipas... lap muka, badan with kain lembap and also put air asam jawa atas kepala dia.... hehe.. sounds silly but alhamdulillah... it works like a charm! everytime!
But of course, if the fever goes on for more than 3 days, we'll see the doctor... sometimes to get his blood sample for checkup.. if denggi ke apa ke...
This time though the fever is probably because of the cold... so takla teruk sangat..
But now Rayhana has started sneezing. But takde la pulak hingus ke apa. I would monitor her for another 1-2 days before bringing her to Dr Musa.

shake,
nak mintak tolong boleh??? can you list down for me the age and the jabs that the kids get for each age. since Rayhana is going through that, mesti you ada that chart kan??? boleh tak .... nurse kat sini sibuk nak tau. pretty please!!!!
Thank you!
k.. will do that soon. I checked.. it seems that altho the vaccinations are the same, somehow for Rayyan & Rayhana they take at different months... maybe it depends on the doctor, maybe it depends on the gender.. I don't know.. I'll post both for Rayyan and Rayhana...
