Fever Continuing 1 Week After Laparoscopic Surgery

A MyEndometriosisTeam Member asked a question 💭
Oakland county, Michigan

Hi everyone! I thank you all for welcoming me to this group and giving the greatest advice. I’ve been reading every single one of them and have learned so much.

I do have a concern with my recovery process. It’s been one week since my surgery, and I’m still experiencing nausea/ dizziness if I stand too long (making showers difficult) fevers (fluctuates from 99.9-100 or normal at times 96.5) (highest it got to was 101.8) and with the fevers come chills, headaches, and my body just needs to lay… read more

I’ll keep everyone updated!

You should definitely check with your doctor.. But yeah, recovery is always rough, I'm on my 19th day post-op and still not 100% well. But the fever is definitely very concerning. Hope you find out the reason and get better soon.

Hope you recover quickly!
