Hopefully you are past this and everyone is doing much better. I was reminded that small amounts more frequently (every 30-60min perhaps) is key with acute problems. Nurse frequently and when it pushes your comfort zone talk to dr.
Other oils to try:
Thyme
Lemon
Mellissa
Myrh
Black Pepper
Helichrysum
Wish I could say do ABC, but I'm not a doctor, and I think it would be illegal. So here's our last 2wks. Our 9 yro also tested positive for flu & doc said she'd be down for 2+weeks. She ran a 104 fever for 30hours. Nothing was bringing it down (even tried alternating between tylenol & motrin) and she was starting to refuse liquid. I had tried peppermint on feet, forehead, & back. I had also tried frank (same places), as well as 2parts frank/6parts oregano/6parts ongaurd with coconut oil on feet & back. Someone suggested equal amounts of thyme/lemon/lav with some coconut oil on spine, forehead, and feet every hour!
So I kept doing what we'd been doing, added the thyme/lemon/lav after 90min her temp came down to 101/102 rang. We kept pushing liquids every 30-60min and we kept up the every hour application (except at night-then we slept & applied whenever someone woke). She was totally fine and fever free within 60hrs from when symptoms had started! We continued to apply oils and I added 1/4 of adult supplements once she could swallow them. Stopped oils when she'd been fine for 3 full days.
In comparison (and everyones body is different) husband got fever 48hours after 9yro (she'd shared before we knew she was sick). His was 103+, applied all oils more frequently, his stayed between 101&103 for 24hours, then broke. He practically stopped using oils and after 6hours his fever went back up to 103. I started anointing him every 30-60min, with no results. After 4+hours I grabbed Deep Blue Rub to help with aches and fever broke within 60min. He wouldn't take supplements, stopped using oils, and a week+ later is still out of energy and coughing.
We also ran diffuser with OnGaurd around the clock & I put frank/ongaurd/oregano on eveyones feet 2-3 times/day. 2yro, 3yro, grandparents(including the diabetic that catches everything), and I are still Flu free.
Hope this is helpful to someone out there,
Helen

My 3-month-old tested positive for the flu virus today and has had a temp of 101-102 for the last 24 hours. What can I do to get his fever down? I've tried frankincense on his feet and peppermint or lavender on his neck/behind ears/spine. Nothing is helping, not even Tylenol.
