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 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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
