By Oceanside1370 on 28 Feb 2011

Hello, I am about 5 weeks out from a full tummy tuck and muscle repair. I had problems with my drains at around 2 weeks I had green drainage and doctor removed then and said not to worry. Now I have no appetite still,very thirsty , muscle cramps all over and joint pain like I have the flu ( not the flu thou) and on and off low grade fever at night . Maybe 2 to 4 days last couple weeks.. Anyone else have or had this?? Should I worry ?? is this normal?

Could this be an infection? I recommend calling your surgeon's office right away. And if they don't take you seriously, find someone who will.

i think you might need antibiotics! tell your MD AND your PS

You sound like you are dehydrated. Def get back to see your PS with the fever. Fever is never normal. Good luck!!!

I am nearly 4 weeks out, and have not experienced any of those problems. Go back and see your PS.
