Low Fever And Rash In The Month After C-section
Jul 24, 2014
I was pregnant with my first child when the following happened;
- at 27 wks began to have multiple lymph nodes swollen along both sides of my neck
- low grade fever which was controlled by taking a paracetamol
- dark urine color
- at 28 wks I was admitted to hospital and started to have severe oedema
- blood results showed my uric acid, creatine and alk phosphate, ferritin, c-reactive were high - with WBC critically high
- Hemoglobin, RBC, platelet, Albumin was low
- I had difficulty breathing (constant heart rate of 135), a scan of my heart showed it was lacking liquid
- blood pressure was fine
- Baby was taken out via c-section at 28.5 weeks where my condition worsened before starting to get better
- in the month after baby was taken out I continued to have low grade fever and developed a rash
- My blood work returned to normal in 2 months after being admitted to hospital with steroids
The doctors never found out what the cause was, please advise if you have heard of a similar case?

I had unprotected oral sex when she was menstruating (tampon used) and also received oral sex. I am not sure with how many people she sleeps with. for intercourse condom was used. Condom was tested for no breakage later.
Now after two weeks I have epididymitis inflammation and hence lot of pain on my left testicle. I have given urethral swab for test of chlamydia and also urine for test. I am waiting for results. I am taking ciprofloxacin and it already helped reduce pain on my testicle after two doses.
now i have been having mild fever (37.5 - 38.4) ever since i started having the pain (two weeks after the exposure). also i have 3-4 rashes , dark purple (only one of them is big to the size of a bed bug) between my shoulder and elbow on my left arm. rest of the body seems fine.
irrespective of the probability that I may have caught chlamydia, is there any worry for HIV?

My husband woke up with ice cold hands and feet last night and was shivering like crazy with a temp of 99.7. At about 1:30 pm, he came home with a fever of 102+. He also has a rash on his leg that is hot the touch and he says it feels like a bruise.

i have had this itching on the backs of my legs (and slightly on one of my upper arms) for a weeks now, its worst at night and comes up all bumpy when i scratch it, i have no idea where it's come from as none of my washing powders/shower gels etc have changed recently and i've changed my bedding and cleaned my living space etc since it's started so i dont think its anything to do with dirt, and as far as i'm aware i have no allergies to anything so i have no idea what this could be caused by or how to solve it. any ideas?

I have been taking Levothyroxine for about 8 months now and since then I seem to be suffering from increasing allergies. I already suffered with Hay Fever during the months of May and June but suddenly I started being allergic to my rabbits. I knew I was allergic to their hay but not the rabbits themselves. The doctor gave me an inhaler for when I needed to use it if I inhaled some of the rabbit fur as I found I was struggling to breath. I then started to be very sneezy at night and in the mornings sometimes sneezing up to about 15 times which is quite wearing. Then my skin started to start feeling really itchy all the time. I went to the doctor and he said that it should not be down to the levothyroxine and prescribed me some antihistamines to take to see if that settled the allergies. I am now getting a heat rash which seems to appear when I exert some energy. I am not talking about a great deal of energy though just a brisk walk or so and the rash starts on my chest and raises up past my ears. Today the rash was even on my legs and my fingers swelled so much that I had to quickly remove my jewellery. Has anyone else experienced this?

Last night I started getting a cold, so I took a shower and went to bed. On the middle of the night my fever broke and I woke up sweating really badly. Well I noticed an itchy sensation by my pubic area and when I looked I had a red rash all on my pubic area up to parts of the hair on my stomach. I even have a small rash on my thigh. It looks like it's only where hair is at. It is like bright red and it feels like it might have something in it, like you can feel the rash. I was hoping you could give me an idea of what it is?

Almost exactly 30 days ago I had unprotected insertive vaginal sex with a woman I might categorize as low risk. Until this encounter I have only been with my wife (high school sweethearts). The woman in question is from northern Minnesota, white, in her 40s. I'm also in my 40s, white, also from rural Minnesota. For the past three weeks I've had sore throat, slightly swollen lymph nodes on my neck. No fever, no rash. Checked for strep, came back negative. I've confessed to my wife who appears willing to stay with me. I'm scheduled for HIV testing next week (4th generation). I have an appointment with ENT, but not for another month. In the meantime my anxiety level is quite high....I don't necessarily feel fatigued, or flu like. But the last couple of days my appetite has disappeared, which may be due to the anxiety. I am worried because the sore throat and slightly swollen lymph nodes have lasted this long without knowing the cause....Can't be cold, shouldn't last this long. Allergies? I take Zyrtec every day and seem pretty clear. Not much sinus congestion at all. Tonsillitis? One does appear a bit enlarged. All of a sudden? Seems coincidental. Near panic as I wait for my test....any possible reassurance to help get me through this weekend? Mono perhaps?

Just out of hospital after having experienced a dreadful reaction to Sulfasalazine. Had been taking it in total for just 6 weeks, experienced the nausea, bloating & generally feeling rough. Then wow, did I have a rash head to foot, fever and swelling. My whole body swelled up & I had to be admitted to hospital in a bit of a hurry as my tongue/airway was swelling to. ? over damage to liver. Have had blood taken every day, liver scan & am now on steroids to combat all the nasty effects.

I previously posted about my night sweats but now I have a new symptom. Mostly in the morning, my forehead and sometimes my face feels hot but I don't have a fever. In fact my temp. will be a degree below normal. My body will feel a little warm but not as much as my face and forehead. Does this sound like mild hot flashes?

I'm 39 and I've already had 3 c-sections and this pregnancy was a big shocker seeing how my kids are 12, 16 &20 so I'm really nervous about having a fourth and recovering. Has anyone had 4 c-sections or more? How was the recovery?

Do they let you set your c section date at 37 weeks when you are full term?

I'm scheduled for a c section Wed. due to my little man's position and the doctor said a vaginal birth could be risky due to the size of my birth canal. I'm a ftm and this really dissapointed me. I'm really scared considering i've never had any surgeries before lol. Has anyone else had a c section? what was your experience? what should i expect?

Im currently 35 weeks and will be turning 36 weeks on saturday.im getting scheduled for a c-section in 4 weeks also this is my second pregnancy my first was a c-section as well.My problem is that i dont want another c-section i tried talking to my doctor about it but hes not letting me have vaginal delivery at all. I'm scared to get a c-section because i already know how it feels to have a cut on your abdomen. Now my question is if i was to go into labor or if my water breaks before my scheduled c-section and i go to the emergency room would they let me have a vaginal delivery or not?
