My grandmother's been running a fever since this morning. It hit 102 earlier, dropped to 100 after we gave her an antibiotic, but then climbed back up to 102, and now it's at 101. She's also coughing heavily. Im not sure if this could be COVID since we haven't been traveling. Should we be worried and get it checked out, or maybe wait and see for a bit?

View allI've been using Nicotex for the past 10 days. I know there's a specific cycle for using it. Since I don't feel like I need it much, I'm just taking 1 or 2 chews daily. Is that okay, or should I be following the cycle more strictly?

I'm worried because last night, I had really severe symptoms and ended up taking both Wikoryl and Dolo 650. Is it okay to take them together, or should I be concerned about any potential problems or side effects from combining these medications?
