Help! 6 days post op vomiting and fever
Micah is 6 days post op now and is still extremely fussy, has a cough, is vomiting at night and has a fever of 100.4. Is this normal??? I am hanging by a thread here.
It is most likely Micah picked up a virus of some kind at the hospital but you should call and speak to either Dr Fearon or Nurse Cindy if he's not available (usually he is in surgery in the am and into mid day but he can probably be reached in the afternoon). The fever is not terribly high which is good.... just keep a close watch on Micah and obviously if things get worse seek medical care with your ped or urgent clinic...
Hang in there momma and keep us posted....
Kristin, Momma of two rambunctious cuties:
Lucy born 3/05 "failure to thrive"- negative percentile on growth chart for weight 3/06 to 3/08
Xander born 3/08 Left Lambdoid Synostosis and Chiari Malformation- Posterior CVR Surgery 2/09 w/ Dr Fearon and Dr Sacco at Medical City Hospital Dallas, TX (fought insurance and won in network gap exception) rant rant rant....
Thanks so much. Dr Fearon said he shouldn't be vomiting or coughing, so we are going to his Pedi at 2 today. We will keep you posted.
