U need to call ur doctor ASAP

Fever is never a good sign. Go to emergency if you can't see anyone right now

Symptoms of a sleeve leak include pain in the abdomen that gets worse rather than better, swelling in the stomach, pain in the left shoulder or chest, dizziness, fever, infection and the appearance of sickness.

Please to go and be seen. Don't wait. Please update us when you can. I am praying.

How high is your fever? I had the same symptoms 4 days out and the surgeon was OK with my fever at 99.8, but no higher. If it went to 100 or above, I was to go to the ER right away.

If you are unsure, just go to the ER and don't mess around. It's better to be safe than sorry. Hope you feel better soon!

CALL YOUR SURGEON NOW. Symptoms could be fever (mine told me over 101), abdominal pain, tachycardia (elevated heart beat), intolerance to liquids and other. Varies by person.

A leak is nothing to mess with and can lead to serious complications including death.
