CALL YOUR DR. and fast...given your medical history so far....you may have picked up a staph infection in the hospitol....you can be run down from the surgery and chemo.....and have the flu on top of it all.....did you get the flu shot? sounds too serious for you to be fooling around here with answers......go get help.!

After taking chemo, even if it was a year ago, your immune system is still not what it was. You could have the common flu. Also, by having a recent operation you could have contracted infection from the open wound of the surgery. I don't recommend taking anything over the counter because it could mask something more serious that the doctor may be looking for. If you aren't feeling any better by in the morning I would definately call the doctor and get it checked out. Better safe than sorry!

i dont know....... lol jk. anyway i would say its an infection of the sinuses (or whatever the plural of sinus is) or an ear infection and any infection will effect your whole body as your body tries to fight it, spleen nor chemo should effect it other than maybe a slower immune response, take vitamins and if it doesnt start getting better within a few days see a doc for some antibiotics

You need to call your doctor! You shouldn't take any chances being so soon post surgery.

I think you need medical advice, given you recent medical history!
