[|Human|] I had angioplasty with one stent 5 days ago. Since the second day i have had fever (ab 99.5). I take levofloxacin 500 mg twice  a day and Acetaminophen 500 mg 3 x  a day. The fever still there, eventhough after taking acetaminophen decreased to 98. I am 58 weigh 138 lbs. Is that normal?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for the query. Persistent fever after angioplasty can come due to the following reasons:1. Because of the heart attack itself - The fever may last for a few days and then go a way spontaneously. 2. Due to medicine/ stent - The body may react to the Chat Doctor.  3. Fever can also occur due to associated infection. As you will understand, it is difficult to tell the definite reason for fever without doing some tests (like routine blood count, ESR etc.) and physical examination. Hence, you should visit your treating doctor for the same. If you have any doubts, please feel free to contact us.
