The Fever Code Novels & Stories

She put a hand to her forehead and felt a searing sensation. "Oh no, I'm running a fever," she thought. “However, I took medication. What's causing my temperature to persist? Teddy is entirely to blame. How could I have had a fever from getting wet in the rain if it weren't for his useless questions?"

"Are you awake, how are you feeling?" "I'm fine, thank you" a little shy, since when did we change our address. Another hand pressed on my forehead, warmly dispelling the cold of Dalat weather, helping my body increase temperature. “The fever has gone down, you have a fever of 39.5 degrees, you know?” His worried look warmed my heart. "Do I have a high fever?" " That's right. When I turned to him, he shrank back, his face was pale, his whole body was hot but his mouth was cold. It scares me to death.”

Liora exclaimed, placing her hand on Caroline's forehead. "Mommy, you have a fever!" Liora gasped in alarm. Caroline was taken aback. She hadn't realized she had a fever but now felt dizzy. She reached for the drawer and grabbed an infrared thermometer. Liora leaned in to see. "Mommy, it's 38°C! You need medicine!" Caroline patted Liora's thigh. "Go outside, Lia. I don't want you to catch it if it's contagious." "Okay, Mommy!" Liora nodded and hurried out of the room.

he replied, voice hoarse. Tessa didn’t correct it. The nurse offered a small, reassuring smile. “Your son is stable now. The fever is from a mild gum infection likely linked to his lost tooth. It's not uncommon in young children, especially when they touch the exposed area too much or don’t rinse properly after.” She flipped her clipboard. “He’s a little dehydrated and his temperature peaked at 39.5°C. We’ve given him antipyretics and started him on IV fluids. We’ll keep him for overnight observation, just to be safe.”

I dont like that pose, or the look on her face. "What?" "He had a fever. But it's fine now, it's under control." My heart dropped. A fever. Those two words pulled me out of the schemes and conspiracies and slammed me back into something far more terrifying, being a mother. “How high?” I asked, my voice sharp. Valerie hesitated, never a good sign. “It peaked at 102.5. I gave him meds. Cool compress. Called the doctor, just to be sure. They said to watch it overnight. He’s stable now.”

"Anything for you." I swallowed hard, suddenly feeling nauseous for a completely different reason. The doctor’s attention shifted to me, his gaze clinical as he took in my flushed skin and trembling hands. His frown deepened. "She’s running a high fever," he remarked, picking up a thermometer. The device beeped after a few moments, though I didn’t need to see the numbers to know it wasn’t good. Dr. Anderson’s expression grew darker as he turned to Aaron. "103.7," he said grimly. "This is severe. We’ll need to act quickly to bring it down before complications arise. I’d suggest an injection to stabilize her condition immediately."

"Oh, I remember. His name is Ruphias. I overhead Itzel's ma and ma talking about him. They said he died from a fever. Do you know what a fever is?" "Well, fever is a situation where a person's normal body temperature is higher than normal." "Like what is happening to Itzel?" "Uhm yes. But fever might not necessarily be due to a disease or an outbreak." "But that was what killed Ruphias and it is exactly what is happening to Itzel." Aelfric sighed. "Beeta..." There was a rattling sound at the door, they both turned their heads in it's direction. Beeta got up from where she was squatted and ran towards the door. "Ma? Ma is that you?"

Isaiah urged. “cannot guarantee," Miranda exclaimed. Isaiah couldn't say anything. He pressed his brows together, but he had no choice other than to compromise and try to explain in a euphemistic tone, "Actually, it's an old problem. It has happened now and then after Brian's accident A high fever is a Symptom. However unlike a common fever, high fever does not go away, and there is no method to lessen his fever no matter what the situation is." "How could this happen?” Miranda wondered with her face flushed with fear, "I don't get it"

“Thank you so much,” Just a short time later a Nurse Anette comes in except she doesn’t adjust my air conditioner unit she scans my head with a thermometer. “Now I know why you think sixty-five degrees is too hot for you. You have a fever of a hundred and two. We are going to have to take some more blood to see what's wrong,” She

Final. I said nothing. Aria looked up. “His temperature’s climbing again. One hundred and three. The suppressants aren’t holding.” I kept my voice flat. “Increase the dosage.” “I already did.” Her eyes narrowed. “Mr. Kael, this isn’t a normal fever. Something’s wrong with his bloodwork. The labs keep flagging an anomaly I can’t identify. It’s like his cells are… rewriting themselves.” Before I could answer, the door opened.
