So i had surgery 3 weeks & 3 days ago. A week.after surgery i got an incision site infection - went to the dr and have been packing it ever since. It started stinking horribly, i could smell it through mt bandages & clothes! Went to dr and he cleaned it out and then i learned it is now about 1/4 deeper. No antibiotics. I have been tired & weak but not terrible.

Fast forward to Wednesday - started back to work - really lost track of Fluid intake and before i realized it was 9pm and i only had 6oz of liquid. Things progressively went down hill. My side was hurting, having a hard time taking in a deep breath (thought it was gas), started getting really weak and nauseated and the thought of drinking anything sent me into gag mode. By friday i could barely move and after my shower i was shaking and very light headed. Ended up getting so cold i was wrapped in 6 blankets and i was still shaking! Just knew from there a trip to the er was coming.

So went to er - found i was dehydrated, had a fever, AND now have an.infection near my spleen.

I still am having a hard time drinking and still have fever and overall not feeling well. Dr prescribed me zofran & antibiotic.

Has anyone had this?

Oh and have to get adfitional tests done besides the CT Scan ladt night - dr thinks i will be needing ANOTHER surgery!

How awful! I'm sorry you are having such problems. Take care of yourself and get well soon!
