I just had revision surgery on November 8th. I am so sick.

I had my surgery on Weds. and came home on Sunday. By Tuesday I started having severe pain in ny chest, behind my left breast and under my shoulder blade. I called my doctor and got some more pain medicine. This seemed to work until Sat. the pain got so severe it felt like a knife was cutting into me. I called the dr and was told to get the the emergency room for some test. I had a cat scan, chest x-rays and blood work. NOthing showed up on these tests. They decided to keep me in the hospital for a couple days to feed me threw my veins to give my pouch time to heal. My white blood count was up so I was put on antibiotics. I stayed in the hospital from Sat until Thanksgiving day. The night before they let me come home I was running a fever of 103. It broke during the night. It was 101 when I left the hospital. It has stayed around 100 since I came home until yesterday. I started vomitting and running a fever of 102. I threw up twice yesterday and called my doctor (because that is what she told me to do if I started running a fever). She told me that I could come back to the hospital and be put back on iv's but that she did not know what is wrong with me. I decided to take tylenol and it brought my fever down for awhile. I threw up again during the night and again this morning. My fever has gone back up to 101. Can anyone tell me if this has happened to them and what I should do.
