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'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...

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
