fever..

I ate a few bites of chicken from Wendys today at lunch.. about 30 min later, I felt awful.. nothing stuck, but I felt nauseated and really feverish and weak.

I stayed at work as long as I could and came home around 3:00. I felt awful, really weak, etc.. I went to sleep and woke up about an hour ago freezing with my face burning.. I checked and I have a 100.5 fever. I took some of my liquid Tylenol.

the question is, I don't really have any cold symptoms, etc.. so im wondering if you can get an infection from the surgery, im 3 weeks post OP. I can call the dr in the morning, but just curious what you guys think.

  • weird. Do your surgical sites look ok? keep an eye on your temp and if it gets up to 102 I'd head to the ED just to be safe. You just had major surgery, no point in taking any chances.

Yes. Are you having diarrhea?

I had diarrhea one time a few hours ago, but that's it.. no stomach ache..

just took temp again. the liquid Tylenol is bringing it down. 99.4

thanks

Hopefully it's nothing, but if you spike a fever again I'd call, it never hurts to call. mine told me for the first 3 weeks if I had a fever over 101 to call the office. Feel better soon!

Or it could be purely coincidental and you have picked up a cold or the flu.

Best wishes.
