When to phone 111

I’d definitely phone 111 for some advice.

Ring 111 they are only advisory and won’t be bothered by your call but they will know by the answers you give whether your wife needs an ambulance or a doctor or can wait till tomorrow, she could well have a kidney infection with the bad back pain (if it’s lower) but the temperature and shivering indicate an infection much best you get advice and possible attention now than wait till it gets worse
So my advice is don’t wait

She’s not being a nuisance it’s there for advice and help if needs be.

I agree. They are very helpful and will not think you are being a nuisance. Phone them!

Do come back with an update sisteract

I would phone now as she clearly needs some professional help. Please let us know. x

If you think she is ill, please make the phone call. It should be your decision and you are obviously worried so please do make the call.

Update. I have tonsillitis and water infection. Not much recollection of saying don’t ring. On penicillin now. Thanks Grans

Wishing you a speedy recovery

Get well soon
