Is Fever Normal After Undergoing Stomach Cancer Surgery?
Hello, I have a grandma that had a stomach cancer removal about 4 years ago. But just recently she had a horrible high fever and red spot start to appear all over her body. Does anyone know what is happening or what might be happening to her? Thank you for your help.

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Dhe has history of stomach cancer. However she might have some infection. Her platelet count may be low and it leads to red spots. She should go for complete blood count with platelet count. It will give you exact diagnosis.
Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
