I'm 8 weeks post op today. I still have days where I'm swollen and days where is almost non existent. I'm back in the gym 4+ days per week which is great. And I've started working my core again. The stretching sensation is still pretty odd at times, but I feel like I'm healing well. I started using maderma and silicone scar sheets on my incision a week ago. I think it's already starting to lighten some! Here are my pics.

6 weeks today!!
NoleNurse00January 25, 2017
I'm healing great and really feeling great too after such a rough start! All of my suture abscesses have fully healed and the swelling is getting better. I started back at the gym a week ago. Whoa is it slow going!! I haven't felt so out of shape in a while! But I will keep going and it will get better :) I will truly be happy when the swelling is all the way gone! Took some pictures at week 5 and I'm uploading them now. I don't know that I really have anything else to add right now!

I was lucky and was able to take off about 4 weeks. But I had some minor complications early on. If it weren't for those I could have easily gone back 10-12 days post

Drain is out!!
NoleNurse00January 9, 2017
Hooray the drain is out one day short of four weeks. Have had some major ups and downs. My one small spitting suture turned into a superficial dehiscence. In all I have 4 spitting sutures, 2 are almost healed, one may get worse, and one is healing. I also have another spot I'm hoping doesn't open up. I'm on Bactrim for a potential infection in the dehisced area but that looks much better too. Hopefully no more setbacks from here on out.
In this pic was the initial spitting suture, then the couple holes that opened, then the open wound that occurred.
