fever in 4th week of laproscopy

My wife got pregnant through IVF, and it turned out to be ectopic pregnancy.

She got 1 dose of MTX which didn’t work, then we are suggested to go for laparoscopy.

I am worried about fever in 4th week of Ectopic Laparoscopy surgery.

Hi, I would suggest erring on the side of caution and getting her checked over. Call 111 and ask for advice or if she’s poorly then take her straight to A&E. I hope you’re both ok.

Dear Raj,

I am so sorry to hear of your ectopic pregnancy loss,

If your wife has a fever, I would advise seeking medical advice to discuss any other signs and symptoms she may have.

Sending love love,

My wife’s fever went away. She got fever due to minor infection. GP gave antibiotics, fever went away.
