A fever, colds or maybe a flu.

I was thinking about it last night, and I think I will simply do a "rule by 3" :

1/2 teaspoon soda (2,5 gr) / (my weight) lbs x (?) soda / (children's weight) lbs

That would be about 0.5 gr Soda for a 30 lbs toddler

I'm going to look up if it's better to give it in water alone, or if it could work in orange juice (vit C), similar to the Pedialite Recipe (orange juice + salt diluted in water)

Also I think trying to distract his attention to smth good, something he feels joy from, he can have a smile, would be nice idea. (Maybe some good cartoon, or some toys he like to play with or to read hom some fairy tale to him. Smth that cheers him up. You know better.)
Of course taking into account his state, and depending on it.
It will also cheers you up; I enjoy watching small kinds smiling, they have kind of innocent and sincere smile. 😊
 
Once my classmate told me that when he had some colds, he wear very warmly, wrapped himself in blankets to sweat out few times. I did something like that long ago, it worked for me.
But in this case I wasn't sure about this method, because I have a fever. Also, as far as I understand, most of the viruses on the contrary are afraid of low temperature.
Here I am confused, because before I thought that the fever usually occurs because the body is fighting a virus. It's kind of burning a virus off, so to say.
So I don't have enough information on that.


I'm recovering, feel better, I almost recover actually I can say. :cool2:
I didn't expect that it will be that fast actually.
I was feeling really badly, I got such a dizziness.

Strange feeling I had yesterday, like smth is changed in me. It looks as the perception of the environment and people around had changed in some way.
And right now while writing this post I have this push/pain in the back of my head (neck/head connection area) it is not painful, it is kind of like someone put a hand on you.

Maybe I got that feeling because I feel better, the great contrast with the way I felt before, so I don't know.
Actually there were a lot of strange stuff during past few years with me, so I can't say I'm surprised.

My father get a fever today. So it looks like it is some kind of virus that I have.
I almost didn't communicate with family members during this time period, but it look like it didint help.
 
All of my family member, one by one, got that virus. With the exception of my mother, she is in another place right now.
They think it may be covid.
Sad and annoying thing that they don't listen to me. Even with baking soda. They will rather load themselves with some meds.
Actually they never listen to me, I gave up on that.
I don't know what can I do here, it is their choice.
I guess it is somewhere up to 15 years I'm gluten free, and they still will be glad to see me eating some gluten.

(I read recently that amount of ill because of COVID rised up in Kiev region, 1300 people starting form first week of this month, to compare with July it was 200 only. )
I dont have data about my region, but I just met my friend, he said he has been ill few dys ago, and have covid he thinks, he had fever his temper rised up to 40 degrees, and all his family members also got ill, but their temperature was 37.6-38 degrees by Celsius)

I will send this baking soda receipt for my mum.
I just told her.
She actually the only one who can listen to me to some extent, if she is not under others influence.

I was in really weird state during those days, I guess I should write it in the "how are you feeling?" thread. May be not only the virus that influence me. My mood, mental state ..
