Ginagirl 21 Posted August 6, 2013 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?

stamour1 22 Posted August 6, 2013 i would call the doc maybe infection or leak if your temp goes up after u drink your protein.. 1 TwinsMama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arts137 1,811 Posted August 6, 2013 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joatsaint 2,814 Posted August 6, 2013 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. 1 Thinner1Day reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jmarie 71 Posted August 6, 2013 You can go to the er and tell them you want to be checked for a leak for your peace of mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
