Surgeon had me in this afternoon for CBC and U/A. He said it is probably nothing but is being cautious. If it is something more then he will deal with it. I'm not worried though. Feeling a little better this afternoon. Just totally wiped and headed for some much needed zzzzzzzzz. Got my response on the pepto and that was a big no. I guess MoM and Tums is ok though.

No fever this morning and last dose of Tylenol was around 8pm last night so that's the good news. The bad news - I'm still having abdominal cramping, diarrhea, and really weak. I'm scared to eat anything but going to try some Lemon Flavored Nectar Brand Protein powder since that is the lightest thing I have right now. Do you know if we can take pepto or should I just let this GI flu or whatever I have take its course? I have to be at work for a meeting at 10am so I've got to get this to stop somehow. =( Trying to get in touch with my surgeon but have had no luck yet.

Yes it does!! Shoes, and a top. Then I had dinner with my kids at a chinese buffet, and spent about 3 hours with them, laughing and talking about all kinds of funny things. Turned out to be a really nice day after all! I haven't laughed that much in a long time with them. Really nice. Thanks, Val

I took some Children's liquid tylenol and it brought my temp back to normal. Also slept a ton today. I still feel really weak and my system is completely messed up. Someone suggested it could be food poisioning or a GI Flu as well. I'm not thirsty anymore so I think I've done a good job hydrating myself. I'll stay away from those spicy/heavy foods for a while. I was thinking because they were soft I would be ok. Actually I may not ever eat them again after what I've been through!! I have such a long day at work tomorrow. Tons of meetings. Hopefully by the morning I will feel better and get some energy back. Thanks!

It could be anything at this point, but I will tell you dehydration can cause a low grade fever. Anything up to 100 degrees is considered "therapeutic" When you go above that and sustain it, then you need to look at other causes. Have you taken any pain meds or tylenol to bring it down? At least put a call in to your doc to let them know what is going on with you so they can advise you further. I hope you feel better. That may be just too much too soon for your gut to handle. Queso and mexican foods are hard on normal digestive systems, not to mention newly raw rewired systems. I would lay off that stuff for a while and just stick to soft bland foods, that's what your body can handle right now, and overdoing it will cause it to rebel in a major way. I hope you are feeling better soon. Hugs, Val
