Please pray for my ds. He came home Saturday night from his Scout OA Ordeal running a fever and achy. Today he is light headed and running a 102 fever. He has no appetite and is generally grumpy (I would be as well).
Thanks so much.
Update:
Well, he is not better. My dh check him this morning and his fever is at 103.5. So he took him to the emergency clinic. I am waiting to hear back from him.
He is so achy and his head hurts. He also is not eating much. I have tried every painkiller available--even gave him an aspirin which he could not keep down.
After all that has happened over the last few weeks, I am so anxious about my dc. I was already overprotective and now I am even more so. I will probably drive them crazy!
Update 2:
The doctor did some blood work and told us it has all the markers of a tick-borne infection! So he is on an antibiotic, tylenol, ibuprofen and a motion sickness pill! He should start feeling better by Thursday.
His scouting buddy is also sick, but he seems to be getting better. The funny thing is ds only had one tick on him in the two weeks that he spent at camp (perhaps there was too much rain for the ticks to survive)!
Thank you ladies for all of your prayers. Hopefully, this will clear up without any further complications.
Final Update:
(At least I hope that it is). I finally got some food to stay down last night. He looked so pitiful just laying on the couch and being in pain. But he wanted mac-n-cheese and so (against my better judgment) we let him have some. He slept well last night and this morning he is upstairs hassling his sister.
Thanks for all of your prayers. Hopefully, his recovery will be without further incidence.

Carole, your ds has our prayers.
My children have all come down with something that sounds similar. It's never nice to have a fever, but in the heat of summer.... 
Please let us know how he is doing when you can.
