Losing my gallbladder- update
The surgery was today and the surgeon said everything looked splendid. This evening I was having awful pain from the CO2, and was walking around the house. Pants felt wet, and a quick look revealed the steri-strip on my belly button was soaked in blood and it was running down my belly to my pants. ER trip, painful ultrasound and repacked for pressure. I was so upset I gave myself a rash- yes really! Awful night but at least it's over!

MsKitty...
Wishing you a speedy recovery.

I leaked all over the place from my belly button. Maybe it has something to do with using the same spot for 2 surgeries?
Feel better!
