Hi,
I recently had my first laparoscopy (first surgery!) Which diagnosed endometriosis, 3 days ago. As soon as I woke up I had a fever of 38C which has remained with me. I went to my GP to remove incision dressings (couldn't do it myself!) And I've got an infection on my belly button incision. I'm taking paracetamol, naproxen and flucloxacillin for the infection but my high temperature is still with me, doesn't even fluctuate throughout the day with medication. My other incisions are healing great but this one hurts so much, I can't even lay down flat! It pulls and stings and I'm having to walk like a hunchback to prevent straightening my back and causing pain!
Has anyone else suffered this way? When should I expect the infection/fever to get better and the pain?
Best wishes!
Gwen
