Nicky had a fever this morning so kept him home for the day centre and by lunch time he seemed back to normal. However, about 4 o'clock he wanted a bath and when I got him out he had a rigor and was very blue so gave him some paracetamol which helped. An hour later went to feed him and was horrified to find his gastrostomy tube full of brown blood. to cut a long story short and after talking to the GP, the gastro unit, community nurse (who knows him best), we have an emergency appointment with gastro doctor tomorrow morning. BUT just two hour after having the paracetamol his temp has now gone up to 39.6.and I can't give him any more but have done the usual cooling off techniques. This morning I was sure he was coming down with the virus I had over the weekend but the community nurse is worried he might have an infection in his stomach. We could be in for a rough night with a possible hospital admission looming
