Hi,
After perforation of appendix there is peritonitis is there,this might have cause of her fever.
You remain in contact with the doctor who has operate for evaluation of her condition.
You have not to worry as all reports are normal,gradually every thing will be alright.
watch for shoot up of temperature,pain in abdomen,vomiting etc,if you find any thing of these,contact your doctor.
ok and bye.
