I just want to bring awareness to head thermometers , my son had a low grade fever so I did NOT give him Tylenol . He had a febrile seizure in his sleep yesterday at home first one and hopefully his only . The reading was inaccurate, his real temperature was 102.7 by the time we got into the hospital ! I assumed it was a cold coming on from school since he brings these things home often but I was wrong , it was an ear infection . He showed no other sign other than a fever so I didn’t know . It’s so scary but it’s not life threatening and there is no brain damage thank god . But anyone who has head thermometers be careful 😩😩

One reason I never ever use a regular thermometer. I spent 50 dollars on one.. I only use a rectal thermometer now. I’m glad he’s okay.

Poor baby! This happened to my nephew once and had never happened again. Yes I don’t use the head thermometers because I’ve gotten inaccurate readings on them before.

this happened with my daughter too. They also told me the head ones were unreliable.

The reading was probably accurate. His temperature could've risen within the time frame.

That too ! But the doctors told me they don’t recommend them either way

I agree with this. Febrile seizures are caused by rapid raise in temp. I’m glad he’s ok 🙏🏻

He was shaking drooling and had a blank stare with his eyes open also blinking
