6 Weeks PO and A Minor Crisis!!
Starting to feel better today when I noticed that my stitches have open on one side of my belly. WTH!?!?!? The incision has opening a little and I am freaking out. Just left a message at the doctor's office. Of course this had to happen close to 5 o'clock.
I HOPE someone calls me back today!!
I thought i've been being careful...have I been standing up too straight?
Having this bad cough for three weeks probably hasn't helped either.
I am having visions of this huge would opening up and I swear I will freak the f*#% out if that happens!!

Had my three week checkup with Dr T on Monday. Everything looks good but he thought I might have some fluid. Said it was hard to tell in fuller figured women like maself...;-)
Anyway, he did put a needle in just to be safe and looks like nothing came out.
He have me the go ahead to start using scar therapy. He recommended vitamin e and cocoa butter and massaging it. He said I could buy all sorts of expensive "potions" and creams but he doesn't really endorse that. Just speeds up the process but doesn't change actual results. My scar seems to be pretty light so I think I will be happy with it.
In other news I got the flu this week and between the coughing and sneezing I am sure I busted a stitch or something. Not feeling too good about that.

You are looking good. Sorry to hear about the flu bug. At one of my follow up appts we were talking about how laughing and coughing hurt, then the gal asked if I had sneezed. I'm like noooo. Then a day or do later I sneezed and thought I was going to die it hurt sooo much. I learned if I fold in half it didn't hurt as much. I hope you feel better real soon. Take 1000mg of vitamin C and drink lots of fluids.
