The nightly fever

So today is one week for me. It's been a horrible week and because I'm struggling with all of the post-op Water gain I had, I am at that point of thinking what did I do to myself? Ugh, I know it'll be better. I just have this one annoying symptom that isn't letting up.

Every night around 7pm, I spike a low grade temp. Somewhere between 99.4 and 100.0. Nothing to call the doc about, but enough that I can feel it. Tylenol usually stops it until the very next day around the same time. It's really annoying and it ruins my night. Not to mention that it's killing my sleep. Did anyone else experience this? As a nurse, I keep telling myself it's a result of the inflammation and I'm fine. As a patient, it's a little scary.

Nurse here too, and I know about not wanting to call...but since its been a 'nightly' thing maybe you should mention it. I mean I agree, body healing, temp a little up isn't huge, but why not let the doc say that. If you were beginning a bit of an infection you would want to catch it asap...you do know that too. Ahhh...the old better safe than sorry and although its difficult...play patient on this one! :) Good luck, hope he is completely unconcerned!!! *HUGS*
