    I would call NHS Direct right away if he has a high temp- they are really good and will talk you through his symptoms and tell you what to do. Hope he is feeling better soon.

    Totally agree with Poz get on to NHS direct they will ask you lots of questions and then offer their advice. Normally the nurse will ring you back and they are wonderful. When Alf had his fall they were great and rang back the next day to see how he was. 0845 46 47 by the way! Hope he's better soon xx
