dolo paracetamol - #27868
I am really confused about why I’m still feeling unwell after taking dolo paracetamol for the past 3 days. I thought it would help my awful headache and the fever that came outta nowhere, but the other day, I clocked in at almost 102°F. My doc told me it would be fine to use dolo paracetamol, but this fever just won’t break. The headaches are more like dull thuds now, and I feel really groggy – not like myself at all. I even tried sleeping as much as I can, but wake up feeling achy and tired. I looked up how often I should take the dolo paracetamol, and I have followed the guidelines, taking it every 6 hours like they said. Is it normal for dolo paracetamol to not work this well? Or could it be something else entirely? I’m sort of getting nervous that it’s not just a virus or something, and maybe there’s something else I should be doing? Should I keep with the dolo paracetamol, or is it time to call again? How long till it works for real? What if it’s masking something more serious? I really didn’t sign up for this! Any thoughts would be appreciated.
