I'm 6 days out tonight and have started to run a fever around 102. Doc has me on Tylenol until tomorrow as long as I don't have any increasing pain. If the pain gets worse or the fever doesn't respond to Tylenol- to the ER I go.

And I am pretty much shitting myself. Leaking has been the one aspect of this surgery that scared me the most. Here's to hoping my body is just having a hard time adjusting!

Best of luck, lady. I haven't been feeling quite 100% myself for the past few days, so perhaps there's just a bug going around.... and not a leak!

Oh no! I'm sorry that you are sick. Hang in there tonight - I'm sure many of us will be praying for you and hoping that you just have a bug!! Keep us updated.

Bedhead generally with a bug you do not have pain? I am nervous for you darlin, I will say a prayer for you.

If you have not been feeling better the last couple days and now fever, not sounding good. I am shocked your doc is willing to let you go through the night. Personally, I would not wait. I almost blew it big time with my abscess by waiting fortunately caught it before the infection burst into my peritoneal cavity.

With a fever you could also dehydrate. Please keep sipping.

If you are freaking out, be safe and go to the ER. Yes, it a pain, but at least your feel better knowing. Your health is #1. Hoping it's ok.

I agree with the above. It's worth the peace of mind to have it evaluated now rather than waiting.

In the hospital

Praying!

I definitely would not wait - even if its not a leak and say a flu bug, you could easily dehydrate and be in a bit of trouble. I'd go to the ER.

That's right where I've been the past 4 hours

I pretty much sobbed my way through 18oz of CT contrast/apple juice.

Oh, I hope it's nothing, but better to check and be sure, IMO. Good luck!! ((Hugs))

So far my WBC count is really high

Please keep us posted! You are in my thoughts! I went through a leak during surgery and it wasn't fun:(

Praying for you.

Praying for you.
