3 days post-op, with nausea and low fever



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on Tuesday. Day one was ok, day two - terrible, TERRIBLE nausea. Threw up 3 times. Finally got home and threw up some more. Called my doctor and they said to come into the ER. I told them I didn't want to be admitted and wanted to wait it out. Now my temp has been hovering in the low 99s.

Today, I got a wave of nausea over me. I have phenergan suppositories which usually work wonders, but this nausea is not going away. Slowly sipping on Gatorade zero and Water. Took my temp and it's 100.0 - not sure what's going on or if I should just go back to the hospital.

I know I'm kinda asking for medical advice, but mostly just seeing if you guys experienced this 3 days post op from RNY.

Thanks,

Dianna

Ugh sorry you're going through this. I had no issues at all but severe nausea and fever seem to warrant a call to the surgeon or a trip to ER. Fevers can dehydrate you very quickly and that is the scariest stuff right now. You need fluids.

With a fever you really need to get checked out quick.

I am going to just echo the above; A fever this soon after surgery needs to be evaluated medically, and you really can't wait. I am hoping that you have by now gotten to the ER and been evaluated and are on the upswing. Let us know.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
