I told you I was ill...

We returned to the doc today as L was still off her food and complaining more about her ear. The new dr was able to examine her a diagnose mild onset tonsillitis.  Antibiotics and ibrufen four and three times a day. Joy.
As we tried to convince her to take the first dose she came out with the line "me better. Me not poorly. Me no want medicine"
We finally figured out a way to get it in her. Antibiotics are 'cuddle medicine' and she has an episode of Peppa and a cuddle while she drinks her 5ml. For the ibrufen we do a 5,4,3,2,1 countfown and she drinks it in 1ml sips.
She managed 2hr (with cry outs) for her nap and woke in a much better mood (meds or that we moved her into a cot again?). We've bought various treats and easy foods so hopefully they will help her feel better.
