I had a surgical abortion a little over 2 weeks ago. Now I have a low grade fever. For the past at least 4 days my temperature has been at least 99 degrees, and then at times it goes up to 100 and last night it was it's highest at 101.5. I also have swollen lymph nodes on my neck and under my chin. I called the abortion clinic and the doctor said that it if it were due to the abortion, I'd have swollen lymph nodes in my legs/thighs and heavy bleeding and cramping, which I don't. She said she thinks it's just a virus. I'm scheduled to go back in on Wednesday, but in the meantime I'm feeling run down and the fever comes and goes. Most of the time it's just 99 or so. I don't have health insurance. Should I go to the emergency room anyway? Or wait until Monday and go to a low cost clinic to see if they can help me? Or just wait until Wednesday for my follow up appointment? I don't know what to do and I'm all alone and my now ex boyfriend has abandoned me. Also to make matters worse I am broke and I work as a waitress and so my job can be physically demanding. Also I know this was not smart of me but I put a tampon in a few days ago so I could swim. Help.
