I'm 6 days post op and today was the first day my temp was up to 99.5...know that isn't considered a "fever" by my doctor, but what could have caused it? I am a little behind on water today, but only by one 16.9 water bottle, which I'm working on right now...

If you have a fever and chest/stomach pains, you'll need to call your surgeon immediately as that could be a sign of a leak. Otherwise, it's not really that high. Could be anything.

99.5 is not a fever........over 100.4 is considered a fever. Don't stress out about it!
