  1. when my son was 10 days old he woke with a 104 temp luckily the hospital treated him for mengitis even though he did not have it. They said there was such a short treatment time. Turns out he had ecoli and the medicine worked for both. He had a spinal tap because there was concern for brain damage and there were also other health concerns. For the most part things are good now
