Oh my dayzzzzzzz

How horrible..like u havnt been thru enuff already.....this must have jusst added to your stress...!!!!

hugs babe...xxxxxx

I am sorry you are having problems with your incision. I had issues with an incision after a laprotomy before I had my tah/bso. The wound would not heal, just kept bleeding. The doctor at one point taped a kotex across my belly to hold the blood. Eventually I had to have the wound reopened and hematomas drained. The would was not reclosed, it was left open to heal from the inside out. I don't blame anyone, it was one of those things. One never knows how the body will react to surgery and how the incisions will heal.

hi ty for your reply .... im getting a bit worked up and nervous ....
i really dont know what to do ...can anyone help

My advice would be to simply go back and get it fixed. You need to heal and you don't need to be stressed over this. Complications can and do happen. It is good thing that this is something that can be fixed. Good luck tomorrow!

I'm sorry you're having to go through this!! Hopefully once it's done your recovery will be totally smooth from here. In the meantime, I'm sending lots of positive thoughts your way!

Hi youngatheart46 I am sorry you have to go thru all that again so soon my heart and throughts go out to you. Good luck tomorrow and think positive!!!! Hugs and Kisses

hi folks
well day day 16
went to hosp waited 2 hours after apt time was not happy ... swwn by a doc who was not really happy with all i told her about wound and bladder and bowel... she asked for consultants registra to have a look .....well she just dismissed the whole thing saying wound was suposed to be like that ...bladder was right to do it... and bowel we'll give you an enema..... bloody marvelous....so she said see you in 2 months ....well i went to see complaints people got forms so im making notes of who when n where and waiting to get things in order for it...
last night was bad in middle of night ... i wet the bed then before i could get to toilet i had wet myself big time .....and the registra said thats normal :-(
let me know what you all think ...

Hi,
Can you go to a different hospital? Can you go with your dr- the one that said your were stitched up wrong in the first place? It seems to me if you are having such trouble, something must ne wrong. I hope you can find a solution soon- and NO wetting the bed does not sound "normal" to me, sounds like the person you spoke with at the hospital just does not want to admit they may have made a mistake. I am sorry you are going through this.
