I'm 14 days post op after 360fusion. I started feeling yucky yesterday. Ran just low grade 99.1-100.2. I thought maybe I was just dehydrated. It did it again today (of couse Saturday), but my doc was on call. My incisions look good, no redness, or drainage. I think the older I get the more I start to worry. There are so many viruses in our area, he said it couldl possibly be that, but just keep an eye on it. 101.5 he said go to the hospital. Did any of you have any of these post op temp fluctuations? I felt good up until 3 days ago. Any input?
 
I had a low grade after my microD 5 months ago, and I think it was just my body saying whats up?! From going through so much, prior to my recent fusion I was sick with fevers and exhaustion from a bug my son had and shared with me.

I think if you and your SO keeps an eye on your incision it may just be your bodies way of regrouping and getting through the stress of the surgery itself. I always have 2-3 people look at my incision now when I see them just to keep tabs on it.

Hope you feel better, and keep on the look out of it going higher just incase.
 
I hope you're right. I think after you've gone through this once, you know a little too much, and you are also more aware of the complications , and the problems that can arise. Once again..........thanks for your response. Probably the best thing I could do is quit putting that thermometer in my mouth!
