I just had surgery 7/6 at 1:15 and am now home 7/7-8pm. I have had a low grade fever in hosp of just 99.5 and now up to 100. My instructions say call after 101. I was wondering if this low grade temp was normal? I decided to only try Tylenol as I'm not sure I like how the oxycodone makes me feel? Anyway if anyone cld give me some insight on post op day 1 that would be great! Thank you!!

I also had a low grade fever for a couple of days after surgery. My surgeon told me beforehand to expect that, that it is perfectly normal. He also gave instructions to call if it went over 100, which it never did. I would say keep monitoring your temperature but chances are very good that it will go down in a day or so. Good luck!

I'm 5 days post op but I haven't had a fever. Congrats on your new weight loss journey. Hope you feel better soon.

I had the elevated temperature and very high blood pressure, both of which went away after day 4

Thanks guys! The temp is normal today! Hoping stays ok!

I too had surgery on 7/6 & had a temp of 100.2 the evening I camE home. Spoke to dr on call and he said it was fine but to make sure I was using my breathing tool they sent home with me. My biggest issue has been thE tight feeling I have going down center of stomach....
