a few problems with your story. 1. fever is harmless; both the 103 and the 100. it is unlikely that an experienced physician would do anything. fever is more beneficial and does not need to be treated at all. 2. mono is a virus and it is not treatable either
how would an emergency aid physician handle a 100 degree fever in a three year-old. so i'm a novelist trying to figure out a hospital scene in my latest work. my character has just taken her son to the hospital because they both have fevers of over 100 (she is at 100 her three year-old is at 103) and she is basically in a panic. . they both have mono (the mother had it first and transferred it to her son unknowingly) and i've done research to find how a doctor would treat this. what i need to know is how the physician would break the fever. . thank you very much.
