Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per my clinical experience, the fever with chills suggest possible infection or inflammation at the operative part. Loss of appetite can be side effect of certain antibiotic, sluggish digestion or else. I would like to review the details of your current drug intake for further guidelines precisely.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel
