Apparently you have never gone above 105.

No, not all fevers are OK. Getting too hot is very bad, maybe indicative of a losing battle. And relieving some of the symptoms is not bad.

He didnt say what you ascibe to him. You read that in yourself.

Yes, fevers that go above 104 and appear to keep rising need to be put under control so they dont cook a persons brain.

I’m not talking about fevers that might cause a seizure. Duh.

I’m talking about a normal range of fever that may make you miserable but isn’t dangerous.

Relieving fever symptoms can cause serious complications in the long run.
