It's probably a normal part if the healing process, but it's always good to keep an eye out for signs of a problem.

Get a good thermometer and keep tabs on your temperature. The first week, low fevers (up to 100F) are common and normal. If you get a higher one, call your Doc. 102, call your doc and go to the ER.

Usually fevers (if you are going to have one) happen in the evening, so take several readings throughout the day.

I too was also sleeved on Halloween and have been getting sweats every now and then and would love to know what is causing them. I also would love to know how some people survived the post op liquid stages of the diet. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. I have always been one that loves to eat good food and sweets and it's a very hard battle staying away from all of the stuff I liked to eat.

Have you both tried checking your temperature? I we sent home with the breathing machine and a thermometer to check my temperature twice a day for the first 2 weeks to ensure that I didn’t get a fever or infection.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
