Fever of 100 started last night. Surgery was 1/24/12, I have not had any post op issues so far. Fever of 100 started last night , still here today. Slight headache, lower back pain for days now but I was sure that was due to the way i was sleeping. Now im greatly concerned ! My doctor is 3 hrs away, so I'll go to my local GP in the AM. Has anyone had this ?????

I would go to my GP in the morning and to the ER if you symptoms get worse. It could be any number of things and many which may not have anything to do with your WLS. I would definitely check it out to make sure.

Its hard to say - you're far enough along that a leak would be kindof rare, but it can definitely still happen. Have your incisions all healed?

If your fever doesn't go away, I'd go to the ER - the longer you wait, the worse things can get. Are you able to eat and drink and keep food down?

at this point anything is possible - could be sleeve related or maybe not. Better to be checked out!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
