help, small lump and bottom of my incision.

Ok I just noticed that when i lay down my belly caves in and my ribs stick out, which is fine, but because of this I noticed a small lump and the bottom of my incision. I am scared but my bariatric surgeon isnt practicing in my state anymore and I dont know what to do.

You could call Dr. Jonathan Aranow In Middletown. He is a very good Dr. and if you ask around to his post-op patients they will say the same. Feel better. Here is his # 860-347-9167 HTH Chrissy

THANK YOU SO MUCH. I WILL CALL!

I agree,- please call a doc. You really need to have a bariatric surgeon following you for the rest of your life as a WLS'er! Wether you choose Dr. A or another well qualified Dr., please make a call and form a relationship with a new surgeon. (BTW- I'd be willing to bet that it's nothing, just some scar tissue, but it IS better to have it checked) Good luck. Lisa C

That is how mine started and ended up being a hernia. better to be safe and have it checked. i went today and am having surgery next week to repair it! good luck hugssssssss krista 327 / 234 -93
