What should I do?
I have an 8yr old son that has been vomiting and running fever since they sent him home on Wednesday. He missed Thursday and went Friday. We have been alternating ibu-profin & tylenol. He has just been burning up all day.

Please take him to the doctor or ER. He needs attention now.

Have you taken his temperature? It sounds like he needs to see a doctor.

With vomiting and fever lasting 5+ days, I recommend the ER as dehtdration is very likely.
