Post op illness

Have any of you ladies gotten really sick after surgery? /the eevening after operation i got 101.4 fever, coughing up gross green stuff called surgeon he put me on augmentin ( in my opinion anyone who has organs removed from their body should be sent home from hospital with antibiotics) 3 days later another fever, fluid comming out of ear, nultiple canker sore on mouth and blood in my urine twice, went back to drs yesterday. I also was vomiting yesterday have lost 5lbs in a week, he wanted me to go for chest x ray but I really felt too sick to sit in hospital for hours I am going for xray at drs office Monday( guy sho usually does it was off Friday) I am not coughin anymore so i do not think I have pnemonia (pneumonia)?  Has anyone had anything similar? I am on antibiotic, bronchildialtor, antinausea, pain med, symthroid, lipitor, and paxil and using peak flo meter HELP PLEASE, also my first 2 bms after surgery were bloody, nut my ovary was attached to bowel with scar tissue so i figured this was why,
thanks Cherie762

What surgery did you have, a TAH? Most people are usually given antibiotics right before surgery or right at intubation.  I hope you have been back to the doc as of today. Doesn't sound to good. Post op infection. Green stuff usually means infection. Purulent. Love that word. Take care of yourself. Don't do to much. Get up and walk.
Hope all gets better.

I had a BSO all better now I had borderline phnemonia, good thing I called dr. when I did, they did give antibiotics in intubation but apparently I needed more.
