fuck fuck fuck!

SO I have Mastitus and its caused me to have a tempurature. Now I've always ran really high temperatures, like 102/103 would be normal. There was been times where I'll be 104 and feel great.
But I've been feeling warm and I took two Tyenol a few hours ago, but it didnt help how warm I was. So I took my temp again and its
105.1 !
I heard at this point it gets dangerous. So I took another Tylenol and turned on the fan and if my temp doesnt go down in 30minutes to an hour Im going to have to go to the hospital, which so sucks!
And its 1 am and I have a 8 day old baby -_-

sit in a freezing cold bath & it should make it go down

Gah! That's really, really high! Especially for an adult. Can you call your dr., or after hour nurses?
I'm sorry you're going through that with your baby being so new.  
That's sucks...

Good luck mama.

goodness mama! please call the triage nurse and let her know, that is not safe!
Get better soon!!!

its going down. Its in the 104's now. I have an appointment Tuesday to get antibiotics

well please monitor it, a high fever can lead to serious problems, you can alternate between ibuprofen and tylenol every 4 hours.
take luke warm baths and try to sweat it out in sweats.

Please DONT get in a freezing cold bath it will send you into shock and could cause more harm than good, its your core temp you need to lower.. As soon as you begin to shiver your body automatically increases your core temp.

I hope you get better hun i remember how bad mastitis is
