Fever - Take tylenol or no?

Hi All!~

This is a question is expect I will ask my provider tomorrow. But I am curious.

Is the proper response to a fever above 100.5 (mine is currently 101.1) to take Tylenol to bring it down? Or should I let it rage to see how far it will go, meanwhile contacting my Dr.'s office?

I realize that's a pretty basic question, but I have only recently begun to suffer from fevers. Not neutropenic as of Thursday, but that may have changed.

Thanks!

Greg
