I've got a low grade fever 99.8. Kind of achy and tired like the flu. I'm one week post op I hope that it's not related to the surgery. My site scars are sore and itchy. But I think itchy means it's healing? I'm going to keep an eye on things. I took one Tylenol a few minutes ago bc my body hurts. I've gotten one shake in and hardly any liquids. So I'm sipping on some water.

At one week postop, I think you should call your doctor with any kind of fever, whether it is related to your surgery or not. Better safe than sorry! Get well soon!

I agree with @@ready2B I had an infection in one of my incision sites and was back in hospital for two days

I would definitely call your surgeon.

I have had 2 things since that I was concerned about - including a temperature the same as yours.

He said to go to A&E.

Luckily it was nothing, but they want you to be safe and check these things.

It's good for your peace of mind as well

I tried calling his office but they closed bc of snow. I will keep monitoring my symptoms and call first thing in the morning.

I had similar symptoms the week after surgery. Called my surgeon and turned out one of my incisions was infected although it looked fine. Don't hesitate....call your surgeon.

I spoke to my dr and told him my fever fluctuates to 99.9-100.5. He said bc I have a cough it's probably just a cold. And to just keep an eye on things.... If I get worse or have any symptoms that are in my discharge papers then to reach out. But I go for my follow up appt on Tuesday. Meanwhile I'm just trying to get my fluid in, not worrying about the protein as much. Yesterday I had one shake and about 20 oz of water. So I know I'm losing weight. But I wonder if once I feel better will I gain a little of the weight back?
