I'm running a slight temp and worried sick. My dr says I need to do more deep breathing. I was sleeved on Monday 5/5. Anyone else had this issue?

I had a fever the first few days after surgery. It went away on day 3. I really think drinking more Water helped but that could just be my imagination. Give it a little more time but if it doesn't stop, I would make your DR see you to make sure no infection anywhere. Good luck with your first month and recovery.

Take some children's liquid tylenol and see if it helps the fever. If it does, then you're fine. If not, then I'd let your surgeon know.

My surgery date was April 14th. I went home the next day and by evening was running a temperature of 100. I took some of my liquid Hydracodone (the only dose of pain meds I took) went to bed and haven't had a temp since. Just watch it and if it goes over 101 call your Dr. I never even felt like I had surgery :)

I had a fever two days after I came home up to 101, I took Tylenol and it went away. I was petrified but all was good after that.

I was only a little sore for a week or so, but nothing bad. I didn't even take any pain meds. It takes a while before you can get all your liquids in. You have to take sips for a couple weeks. I am almost 4 weeks out and I drink normally now.

I had fever temp of 101 at 1 week postop. I called my Dr immediately and he told me to take liquid tylenol and if that didnt help then to go in to see him. The next morning I woke up fine and no more fever.

      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.
