What Treatment Is Suggested For Fever After Undergoing Angioplasty?

Hello. My mother underwent angioplasty 1 week ago. Since then, she is suffering from fever around 99.5 f all the time. Before getting discharged from hospital , I had informed the docters that she had fever but they discharged her with advice to take ciplox 500 and augmentin 1000 mg twice daily for five days. But even after taking these medicines for 5 days, the fever has not cured. Today, I took her to the hospital again. The doctor has adviced some blood tests and also to take azee 500 one time a day. Please guide .
