My mother is 71 years old and has had a fever (38) for a few days. She has been coming from Spain since last Sunday. Should I go to the emergency room?

Good evening ma'am,

No, just call 1-877-644-4545 and follow the instructions the nurse will provide.

I recommend you call right away.

Good evening,

I worked as a pharmacist in the emergency department of the Granby Hospital for 6 years before dedicating myself to Ask your Pharmacist. I completed my education in telehealth at Jefferson University in Philadelphia and are recently completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Health Informatics at Université de Sherbrooke.
