Changed my own Inodine bandage a few days ago and the wound was looking much better. So, last night had my first soak in the bath for weeks! Nurse happy with things today and I even managed a Zumba class tonight. I feel as if I have turned the corner and can now concentrate on getting the belly down. No more surgery, just proper food and exercise. Still wake up a lot especially if I roll over in the night. It is a slow procedure but well worth it. First two weeks seemed ok but after that you kind of expect too much too soon. Patience .......grrrr. H
