This is something your surgeon will want to advise you on, but my personal preference is tape for 6 weeks. gauze would be appropriate if there is any drainage from the wound.
The discussion regarding the safety of your surgery should occur between you, the plastic surgeon and the neurologist. Optimizing you condition prior to surgery and taking precautions after surgery should result in an excellent outcome with minimized risks of complications.
Thank you for the question and the CT images. I dont think it matters much whether you have a hernia or a severe for of diastasis. Where one ends and other begins may not be that easy to determine. Furthermore, repair of either is actually going to look a lot alike....
