How long did it take to get a fever with swine flu?

Q: I called my OB but they said to wait to go in to the hospital until I have a fever of 100 degrees. I woke up yesterday with a scratchy throat, runny nose, and a little weak feeling. I feel like I can still move and do things, but I am a little tired. I am also 38 weeks pregnant. I developed the runs tonight, which is unusual for me. I called back again and was given the same advice to stay home, and if I develop a fever then go in. But I have no fever and I usually never develop fevers with sicknesses like colds, etc…I didn’t even have a fever with an inflamed infected gallbladder. I am wondering did anyone not develop a fever with the swine flu, does it sound like I have the swine flu? If you did develop a fever did it start the first day or did it take time to develop? I have been taking my temp around the clock. My husbands throat also feels off, and my 3 year old has a slight cough and is also having a sore throat. So this has to be something that is contagious!

Can you develop a scarlet fever rash after starting antibiotics?

Q: I went to the doctor yesterday regarding a sore throat and fever. She thought it was strep, and prescribed antibiotics. She did a swab, but the results won’t come back until Monday or Tuesday. I still have a slight sore throat today, although it is much better than yesterday, and my fever seems to be gone. However, when I woke up this morning, I had a rash on my chest and neck. I know I’m susceptible to scarlet fever, as I had it twice as a child. Can I develop scarlet fever symptoms when taking antibiotics and when my other symptoms seem to be clearing up? If it is scarlet fever, how long will it be contagious for? I am a teacher, and we have a field trip tomorrow. We are leaving school half an hour before school starts, and so it will be hard to find a substitute. However, I don’t want to spread the illness.Thanks!

A: Call your doctor right away. You may be having an allergic reaction to the antibiotic.
