Now I have a fever of 100.



Recommended Posts

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.

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

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.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
