Need a second opinion

2019-03-07 06:34:58
The paediatrician we consulted said that my niece has a bacteria in her blood and it needs to be treated immediately. With one injection a day along with Antibiotics. My concern is my niece is 19 months old and I doubt that she will be able to take such strong medicines. Hence need a 2nd opinion. Her appetite has gone down and she has a cold and a cough. For one day she had a light fever. Attaching the reports. Please advise.
