Do you have a compression garment that you can wear? I wear mine almost 24/7 and it seems to keep the swelling to a minimum.

Yes I wear it 24/7 as prescribed by the Dr for 6 weeks. I only take it off to shower.

Dr. S said it was probably a seroma and to send more pics. Sigh.

Lap Band

I wondered what he had told you. That's what he told me too and mine looks exactly like yours.

The email this morning said it was a seroma and that it will reabsorb with time 2-3 months or get it aspirated.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. Who does the aspiration?

Lap Band

I hope this comes as good news for you. My seroma (swelling) has decreased 3 inches in the last week. I think it's going to be totally reabsorped. I am hopeful now.
