Fever and nausea for 10 days-help!!
I am 6 wks. post op open rny. I have had a fever of 101-102 and unrelenting nausea for the past 10 days. I have had lab work-everything's fine except for potassium 3.4(3.5-5.0 is normal). No elevated white blood cells. I had a CAT scan of my abdomen which shows no problems either(no abscess). My surgeon put me on an antibiotic but doesn't know why I have the temp. I can keep liquids down, and a few bites of cottage cheese or yogurt. Otherwise, the nausea is debilitating. Any ideas as to what this could be or has anyone experienced similar symptoms. Any responses would be greatly appreciated as I am truly miserable.
