Now I have a fever of 100.

I called Dr. Fielding's office and they said to take Tylenol and call back if it hits 101. I'm worried about it being an infection of some sort. I just want to feel better already. Had surgery on Monday and still feeling really sore and generally weak.

You contacted your doctor and that was great! Follow their directions they know what they are doing…I've heard lots of great things about your doctor.

Try and rest AND RELAX!

Thank you. He is a wonderful doctor and I'm trying hard to just stay relaxed and calm. It's hard to get all the liquids in too because I have no appetite whatsoever. I refuse to take any pain meds during the day, only at night if I need it.

take the tylenol....watch the temp and if it gets higher, call dr or go to er

this happened to me also.....hang in there okay :)

I am 4 weeks out and have had a fever almost daily off and on.... It was 100 earlier tonight and now is normal without Meds. I was seen 4/28 and had labs and urinalysis without a finding!

I have read that sometimes when your body is burning fat it can cause body temp fluctuations, but I don't know how true this is but I am freaking out with this on off temp for a month.....Hmmmm

Let us know what happens.

Thanks everyone. My fever has broken for now. Let's hope it stays broken, LOL. Thanks for all the support !!

I ran a fever around 100 for almost a week. I think it was just the way my body handled major surgery and healing. I took my temp quite often just to make sure it did not get to 101 and drank plenty of fluids. Good luck and monitor your temp often.
