The scaring on the arms looks terrible but the stitching was poorly done. The other wounds look as if they were healing much better than in the last photos, but we don't hear any more about this...what has happened to her? Did she make it ok or not? Any more infections? What was going on with the severe abdominal swelling? That was NOT normal. Internal infection or bleeding or both? Did her doctor pay any attention to her at all? Is this silence due to her death and the resultant furor?? Lawsuits? Will we ever know? I know I will never go to this doctor. I HOPE someone cares about this woman and he isn't practicing. I'll go check on that.

SAD NOTE:
Dr Kadz is still practicing as Dr. Bruce Kadz, a FEMALE Dr. in Beverly Hills, CA, at 416 N Bedford Dr, Ste 406, Bev. Hills, CA. 90210. 310.276.3662.
How do I know? His name, his location, and the interesting fact that little has changed but his sex. His patient reviews look typical until you realize that they don't use the pronoun "she" but "HE". "He made us comfortable with his description of"..."He didn't help us..." He isn't even trying to cover up who he is and, I suspect, he might even be in the same location he's been in all along. His educational colleges and training universities and hospitals are probably all unchanged. I guess he's untouchable? What happened to this woman? Did the doctor honor his work and take good care of her? why is there no conclusion to this article?

Been busy, life doesn't slow down and with the holidays! My arms are my trouble area and she been cleaning twice a day with peroxide and double antibiotic ointment. It has a smell but doctor said it is normal. My tt incision is healing and getting thinner, also breast incision have a little bit of separation at the t but healing. swelling is the worst day and night and I'm still super tight, feel like I'm being stretch with any movement.
Happy holidays

I can't believe that you had that many procedures done at on time you poor thing it must have been incredibly painful but it has definitely been one heck of a butterfly moment for you! Wishing You All The Best....Hopefully you are recovering well and enjoying most of your everyday activities again! xx

you Look AMAZING!!! these are the exact surgeries that I want done. Did you have to go to work? if you did how soon were you able to? I want to plan my surgery but not sure how long I will be out. I would love to do all these surgeries at the same time! Amazing story thank you so much for sharing and I hope you are feeling much better now!

Separation is the opposite of closure of a surgical opening. It isn't mending at all. This should get your surgeon's attention immediately at week 5! Something is very wrong. Good for you for your treatment of your infected areas with NO encouragement from your surgeon who missed the diagnosis. This can be a deadly mistake on his part. You MUST get his attention for BOTH of this problems. I wish your story tells us what happens after this.

Dehiscence, oh no

mamabearof4
My arm incisions have dehiscence, which means they've open up. My doctors said it's fine, just soap and water. It doesn't look fine. I called my primary with Kaiser and they don't want to see me, ugh. My tummy tuck incision also starting to open up with yellow stuff. My belly button is so crusty. Just praying it heals

Infected. Glad you indicate you are treating it as infection. Your doctor should take this more seriously. It is NOT fine.
