How high is your fever? My doctor said anything over 101 call him. You need fluids too. Does your doctor have a number where he can be reached on the weekends? If not call the hospital. They always tell say to call if any problems. Hope you feel better. Patsy

I have heard that it is common to run a low grade fever at night after surgery but I have always been uncomfortable with that. My friend was running a low grade fever and she ended up hospitalized with a drain site infection. Please monitor it closely and contact your Dr if it reaches 100. Do you still have a drain? Is your incision site red or angry? Good Luck, TOnya
