Clinical narrative: Friday At about 3PM I laid patient down for a nap. I looked at her often and she seemed fine. It wasn't until around 7PM when I noticed she was sleeping too long for a nap. When I woke her up for a feeding, her skin was HOT! She seemed very lethargic. She was panting as if in pain.  I gave her Motrin, removed her clothes and gave her a luke-warm bath.   After the bath, I tried to feed her, but she refused to eat. She was very fussy and wobbly. She was not herself. I figured the symptoms would be gone by Saturday. That night when she went to sleep she kept making strong jerking movements and panting in her sleep. It startled me. I took her temperature at about 1AM Saturday morning and it was 103.8! I gave her more medicine and did my best to cool her off. Saturday morning at about 8AM I took her temperature again and it was 103. I gave her Tylenol and called the Pediatrician. The nurse seemed to brush it off, told me to keep doing what Im doing and if her temp gets higher than 104 than take her to the ER. Her lack of concern angered me. All day Saturday my poor baby cried and screamed uncontrollably. Nothing comforted her. My daughter hardly EVER cries... if she needs something she whines like "mmmmmmmmm". Her brother and sister always make her smile, or distract her. No smiles, no babbling, no interest. Nothing. Saturday she would hardly look at them. As if her eyes wouldn't focus. She had a sleepy, lazy demeanor about her during the short periods when she wasnt crying Saturday. She was also staring in space for several minutes and making strange jerking movements.  Her fever would continuously rise between medicine doses. I kept giving her baths. I was only able to get her to eat 6oz of milk ALL DAY saturday. I recorded video of her non stop crying at 3Pm and 9Pm. I also recorded video of the date and time from google that day for video proof. Saturday night she was jerking in her sleep again. At 5AM Sunday, I took her Temperature rectally and it was 105.8!!!!!!!! I gave her medicine, got a cold rag on her head and I quickly got her to the nearest ER in her diaper only. When she arrived, her rectal temp there was 105.2. After she got blood drawn and received an IV and nose swabs. She was frightened by everyone that entered the room. One of the nurses also inserted the thermometer too far in her rectum, she screamed and cried. My sweet poor 6 month old angel should not have to be scared and put through this pain. I am so hurt by this, and I just want my daughter back to normal. I want my BABY back! I am battling her fever and she is not behaving as she did before. Everything from the hospital is documented if proof is required. Also, Friday right before receiving vaccines, I asked the doctor (a different doctor) if she knew about the previous event at her last vaccines. She looked at her chart and said, "no I don't see anything". WHY WOULD THEY NOT ADD IN THE NOTES, OR REPORT HOW SHE NEARLY PASSED OUT IN THEIR OFFICE AT 4 MONTHS WITHIN MINUTES OF RECEIVING DTAP!!! I am very hurt and angry. I just want my baby back.
