Low Grade Fever for Months
In early November I had a visit to the ER due to pain on the right side of my abdomen (next to my bellybutton). I had 100.5 degrees temperature and had been nauseous all day. Appendicitis was ruled out via CT Scan. I was sent home with pain meds and told to follow up with my PCP and a colonoscopy was suggested due to thickening in colon. I had the colonoscopy in late December with no remarkable results. I have continued to run a low grade fever - 99.2 - 100.2 ever since. I have times that I am nauseous. I continued to hurt - although not as severe - through Jan. The pain subsided for about a month and is back along with an increase in my low grade fever - never below 99.6 now. As a bit of background, I have Hashimoto's Disease, am Hypothyroid, Pre-Diabetic and have been diagnosed with PCOS. I am a 49 yr old female. The fever and pain sometimes make it hard to do my job - a desk job that I work out of my home. Please help me figure out what is wrong with me.
Gallbladder removed years ago... I wish it was that. The pain is much lower than the pain was for gallbladder. Thanks for the reply!
Sounds like gallstones possibly?? Don't take no for an answer from your doctor - keep bugging them until they figure out what is going on !!!
