Well, I am in day 16 and going through this healing process but I am having some issues and need your feedback. I am very swollen but I am oozing on both side. I have just had a hard time with these drains in. I can't wait until they are out! My experience with Dr Wang's office has been a good one, but I am sure that I will be able to provide more information after I get pass this first 6 weeks

It's tough, I had two drains in and at 2 weeks the first drain was removed. I'm now at 3 weeks and hoping the other drain will come out soon. I had some of that same leakage initially; my doctor put Neosporin on gauze and taped it all around the entrance hole for the drain; took care of the leakage for me. Best wishes!!

Update.....my second drain tube started coming out on its own AHHH!! (I guess I popped the stitch) Went in today and the drain was removed. I feel like 1000%!! Hang in there and you are close to the point where you will begin feeling like yourself again!!

I need some help in knowing how to handle all of the itching at the stitch site. Feedback please

Pain Medication left in stomach during the surgery

During my surgery I had pain medication inserted and left in my stomach that was activated by this armband. This was such a major plus to the surgery!

This has been more than a journey!

My situation went downhill hill and I had to have a 2nd surgery due to me obtaining an Hematoma, blood clots in the "empty space" in my stomach.
