Re: non stop fevers over the past 3 days :(
Welcome to the boards. Glad you knew about this site. First, it is important to establish the cause of the fever. What did the Dr say was wrong with your sister (causing her fever?) It is quite likely you both have the same thinbg. If she has something contagious, like strep, tonsillitis, upper respiratory infection, bronchitis, etc, AND if she is responding to the antibiotics, you probably need them too. Sometimes a Dr will prescribe antibiotics for a sibling in this situation (known contact, close timing of onset, etc.) without seeing them. Since it is weekend, maybe your Mom could call him and ask for that so you can get treated before Monday. I hope you have talked to your Mom and gotten her input too. No one likes to go to Dr., but better that than staying sick and maybe getting far worse.
