Even if it is nothing, it is at least worth the piece of mind knowing he is okay!. good luck and I hope he feels better soon!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wake him up and take him to the emergency room immediately hon or urgent care if such facility is available where you are!. You need to get his fever under control!. Honestly, as a parent that is what I have done in the past when my son had fevers that would not break and seemed in distress and I've never regreted going!. Please take care!. I hope everything turns out okay!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

better safe than sorry!. call your doctors out of hours emergency service and if no joy there take him to casualty!.
it is probably nothing but kids can get worse quickly- better the doctors tell you off for wasting time than anything worse!

you should take him to the doctor ASAP! I think he might have a fever, or sometimes Astma!. My son had astma when he was younger and he got into a very high fever and breathing rapidly!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
