Dealing with Sweats and Chills After Ostomy

I'm 2 months into this ostomy, and I just hate it.
I wonder if anyone else has sweats and chills.

Please check with your doctor as soon as possible. Do you have a temperature?

Sweats and chills are a sign of illness or infection. This may not be the reason, but to be safe, check with your doctor.

I agree with Maried. I didn't even have a temperature and had an infection. Please go get checked out 🫂

Hi t,

We all hated it when we were two months in......some still hate it years later......but I'm not mentioning any names. As said, sweats and chills this far after the operation are not normal and are trying to tell you something. Get it checked out, as the longer you wait, the worse things tend to get........usually. Make the call and let someone in your Doc's office know what's going on.

;O)

I agree with everything said so far. Chills and sweats can be a sign of infection. I had an infection shortly after my ostomy was put in, and I got an antibiotic and felt much better after a few days. It is hard to deal with a new ostomy, but even harder if you are fighting an infection at the same time.

At this point, I don't know what specialist to see.

They can't find a reason. Some say hormones.

I had this even in the hospital. No one can give me an answer.
