Abdominal pains with fever
I have had a low grade fever for almost 2 weeks now. (99.3-99.8) I've also had bowel problems, sharp pains come and go on my right side, to the point I couldn't move but after laying still, the pain eased. I've had body ache and chills at times. Since my gallbladder removal in Aug 2016, I have felt very full and like a brick right above my belly button. This pain has been more severe. Stool samples came back negative. The fever worries me. I'm not sure what my next step should be.

It would be advisable to see a general surgeon or gastroenterologist who can examine you and decide if further investigations are needed such as blood tests and x Ray's/ultrasound abdomen.
