Fever and achey

#1 Post by sacktheqb65 »

Did anyone else get a fever and get really achey all over when they got their braces on? I got mine Wednesday and yesterday I had a fever of 102 and felt like I had the flu honestly.

I should have mentioned, I feel a little better today but still have a bit of a fever.

That fever is a bit higher than one would expect from braces and low grade inflammation. I'm guessing you indeed do have the flu. Best wishes for a quick recovery!
