1st Dr visit since surgery

Hi All, Just got back from my first Dr visit since surgery . I've lost 20 lbs since 9-16 that's the great news , Bad News is I've had to have my incision reopened due to the fact I was allergis to the sutuctures so now I have a big gapping wound in my belly that I have to pack 3 times a days, not sure if I can do it really gross. Otherwise wasn't too bad a day,just long and a little painful ....More later ...Sheila

Bye bye 20#!! We won't miss you! Too bad your appt was bitter-sweet! I'm surprised you weren't stapled instead of sutured. Soon the pain and inconvenience will be a dot of memory in your past and you will be on your way to a slimmer and more vibrant future! Hang in there! Better days to come!

Congrats on the 20 pounds gone forever. I am so sorry that you are having problems with your incision, hopefully it will heal fast. Take care of you! Julie

Sheila, I am so sorry to hear you are having problems. When my daughter was 3 years old she had a cast placed on her leg wrong and developed a sore that had to be packed. I know how hard this is to do. Not to mention the pain. I will be praying for you to have a speedy recovery. Keep your chin up! :angel : watching over you!
