Have your doctors given you a threshold on how high you can let your temperature get before going to the hospital? They always told my husband to head to the ER if he hit 100.1. Often it would spike over that. I wouldn't fool around with this if you have an infection brewing. I am assuming your doctors are on top of your care in dealing with this. I believe that in a healthy person, a fever is your body's way of dealing naturally with infection and that suppressing it isn't always the best thing to do. This is not the case with you. I wouldn't fool around with this. Inform your doctors of this fever if you haven't already.
