Suggest Medication For Fever And Chills

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?

Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.

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.
