five days out..advice pls?



Recommended Posts

Hello im five days out almost from surgery. July 31 was my date I had vsg. I had a fever yesterday of 101. Took tylonel and got it down. I'm noticing a trend, my temp goes up after eating protien shakes, even different brands. Is thier a connection? Nurse said it was regular to get temps in the first week. Any advice?

i would call the doc maybe infection or leak if your temp goes up after u drink your protein..

I've sure never heard of that! Hmmmm, if it goes up... or if it stays... or if you get ANY pain, call them again. Fever could be a sign of a leak... not likely, but possible!

I never took my temperature, but the week after surgery, I felt like I was getting over a bad cold. The feeling went away by the 2nd week.

You can go to the er and tell them you want to be checked for a leak for your peace of mind.

They said low grade temp is normal..so phew

Yep.. And at nine months out, I still get feverish if I eat to much or too fast, so try slowing down?

I'm not sure that it happens to a lot of people..

Some slime, throw up, hiccup. I get feverish and hot flashes, I feel like I need to open a window,

Take off some clothing etc...
