Fever- 1St Time I've Ever Prayed For The Flu.



Recommended Posts

I am ten days out and have had an unusually easy recovery. No pain, no nausea. No problems getting Fluid down. I have one incision that is a little red, so I decided to start taking my temp. I sent a pic to the Dr.'s office and they said it didn't look infected.Fine last night, this morning 99.9, now 100.9. No pain, just a tiny headache, fever and chills and very tired. My Doctor's office told me to go to the ER. My ears feel a little stopped up, but I don't even feel bad. Heading to the ER and praying it's the flu or an ear infection. lol

When my stomach was infected my fever went up FAST and I had agonizing pain in my chest.

Here's to hoping you've got the flu and not an infection!!

Your fever seems to be low grade, still, so hopefully it's a normal thing. We're all hoping for the best for you. Best of luck!

Im no doctor nor did I stay in a Holiday in lastnight :) , but if the pollen in Tenn is half as bad as here in Louisiana I would bet on allergys, I say this because I have the same symptoms. Good luck and hope thats all it is.

What was the diagnosis?

It was a urinary tract infection due to being dehydrated. Spent 10 days on a nasty liquid antibiotic, but otherwise have had no problems since.

      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! 😞
