Feeling unwell after surgery

Hi, I had a laprascopy on Friday. The last 2 days I’ve felt horrible, I’ve had the worst headache ever and I feel so incredibly warm. Like sweating warm, I don’t have a thermometer so unsure wether I have a temperature or not but I’m not sure what’s normal I’m not gonna lie as the doctors didn’t really tell me but I just feel really off and idk whether to call the ward I was on, 111 (I don’t want to be told to go to A&E and wait hours n hours) or wether I just wait till tomorrow and speak to my GP.

Of course you should call the ward or go to A&E! I’d be worried about infection. It’s not something to wait about with.
please go asap

No one is going to be able to diagnose you over the phone , ward will tell you to go to a&e , 111 will tell you to go to a&e and likely the doctor will follow suit when you manage to get an appointment unless there is any urgent care facilities.

It takes a while to recover from any anaesthetic but if you’re concerned about sepsis you should be seen face to face
