I know I should probably be calling a nurse with these symptoms but I generally feel well in myself other than that I have noticed I have lost weight and weighed myself and dropped 6Ibs since my op! Although essentially this is a good thing I have no appetite since my op and have been living off tea and water which I know is no good. I’m also constantly shivering when I don’t take my painkillers or miss some. Is this anything to worry about or am I just being a complete worrier xxx
personally I would call the nurse, u may have an infection or your body may be in slight shock. maybe someone else might able to give u more help but that’s the only advice I have hun. better to be extra safe than sorry. im sure all is fine but ud be better hearing it from the nurse xx
I would say possible infection too hun , get on the phone !! Better to be safe than sorryxx
Had a really horrible feeling that it could potentially be an infection. It’s mainly down to the chills I know something isn’t right. Get my strapping off Friday so going to wait and ask the nurse. Fingers crossed I am just tired or in shock a little bit still. Xxx
Are you taking antibiotics ? I was like that for a week now my dose is over i feel so much better i would still call the nurse..xx hope everythings ok x
I know not the same but similar, after my c section of my first daughter I was the same and turns out I had an infection. Call them I would Hun better be safe than sorry xxx
No Samantha I was given no antibiotics which I was annoyed about as apparently I had some given to me during surgery :/ ? I hope it’s just down to exhaustion I am going to rest as much as possible and hope it’s nothing serious :/ xxx
Aww hun maybe its just exhaustion..im feelin preety crap and its been over a week since my op thought i would be bwtter by now :/ hope you get better soon xx

Thanks girls it may just be a case of some more antibiotics I hope xxx

I know I’m still annoyed I was given none I’m going to ring the nurse tomorrow it’s bad really I should have questioned it upon being discharged. I was only given 40 paracetamol aswell xxx
How u feeling today hun? Xx
Woke up feeling really swollen and sore. Always feels the worst in the morning though so took my painkillers and going to ask the nurse if I’m infected when I get my strapping off tomorrow 🙁 I really hope not but it’s easily treated worst case scenario. Thanks for asking Sarah xx
Look you hunger is also based on your activity, if you are sitting on computer and Doing nothing whole day then living on water, tea and juice can be possible. If you are using weight lose supplements like pure garcinia cambogia or any other supplement in past then It can be its reaction too. But as you said that you not on any kind of pills. I suggest you do long walk and make yourself tried, because you use your body energy, you will need new energy in form of hunger.
Your body needs nutrients from food hun. Not eating will cause you to feel like that. You must eat, go get yourself a curry or chinese something you really like. Taking painkillers on an empty stomach is also very bad for you. Call your nurse get some advice. Xx
It’s really bad taking paracetamol or any pills like that on an empty stomach. Also, you might have an infection. Don’t wait till fri, call her. Eat some toast or smth, you’re making yourself worse when your body needs all the help to recover. Also, I had the shivers from co-codamol, so if u take any- stop that.
