    Sick kid just landed At MBJ need advice

    We are spending the night at the Wexford before heading to negril tomorrow. our eight-year-old boy has come down with a fever and what looks like conjunctivitis. We are debating whether to take him to the 24 hour clinic (Fairview medical was suggested at front desk) first thing in the morning or what? We think he probably needs antibiotics. Any advice? Any idea what we should expect to pay ?

    take him to the clinic, it is ill advised to have someone diagnose your child without seeing him. conjunctivitis is contagious but a fever is serious. I am a pediatric nurse practiotioner so i speak from experience.

    I agree. Take him first thing to the clinic in Fairview. The Wexford gave you the best advice.

    I can't for the life of me see any viable alternatives. "Just see what happens"? "Take some herbal cure for what you don't know?" I spent 5 nights in Black River Hospital a couple of years ago and it cost me $300 US. Money is not an issue when a child is sick now, is it?

    It’s all good. We went to the doctor in Montego Bay very early this morning. She prescribed antibiotic drops. He’s already feeling better and we are under the grape leaves at firefly with drink in hand. Thanks for the input. The board
