First of all, welcome to the loser's bench!!!! This is a very exciting time and crazy time.  You are most likely weak because you are not getting the fluids and nutirents that your body needs. Sounds like you could be dehydrated and perhaps an infection. A fever is a sign of both of these things and is a major reason to contact your doctor. I first of all suggest that you call your surgeon ASAP if you have not already done so. Secondly, keep drinking. Sip your water and get your protein. Your body needs these things to heal. I am not certain as to what surgery you had (VGB?). Maybe someone else can assist with that. But again, call your doctor if you have not already done so. A fever can be a symptom of many things and you should not take any chances.  Hang in there and please keep us posted!

Hi Cass.  Fever = infection.  Please call your doctor immediately.  He/she might just prescribe an antibiotic over the phone like mine did for an incision site infection.    Please let us know.
