Fevers of 102 to 104 are a healthy response to the flu, and the body's primary defense mechanism. One should not suppress that.

I nearly died from Flu in 1968, my fever went to 105 and was stopped from going higher by ice water baths. My recovery began after the fever went so high. Since then I have had very few viral infections.

I can't tell if you are agreeing or disagreeing. First it sounds like you think 105 was too high and nearly killed you, and then you attribute your recovery to your fever going so high.

... I'm confused ...
