A member asked:

Is it normal to have fever of 101.2 and headache two weeks following brain surgery?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: You need to call and be seen by your physician. This is not something that can be managed without complete information of the problem and the treatment plan as well as a physical exam by your treating physician.
