Surgery revision for diastasis repair needed - sutures causing breathing problems need to be removed.

stuartscott
Need some guidance on a very complicated issue but I will simplify because of space and am open to calls or emails for details afterwards. I had a surgery revision for a diastasis that I never had in the first place. The 2nd Dr tightened my fascia and also lipo' my planks which I never requested, causing some contour irregularities but he also tightened my fascia with 5-0 prolene sutures. The issue is that I have breathing issues and need them removed. Is it possible to revise or reverse?
