Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Colonoscopy and endoscopy first thing this morning. At 1:30pm I began feeling chills and feverish. Also a little nausea. Still have fever, but knocked it down using acetaminophen. Called doctor office and left message on nurse line before they closed and no one has called me back. Is a fever normal?
These could be because of post procedure stress effects. Its good that you are taking acetaminophen. If it does not settle in 2-3 days then you can consult hospital for workup.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. Wishing you good health.
