I am 10 days post-op. I had some issues with my largest incision. I thought it might be infected. I went to the doctor right away, luckily it was not infected. The stitches fell off or popped off and my large incision is healing open. It looks disgusting. The dr is not too concerned with this. They just told me to keep it clean and covered. Did anyone else have to heal with an open incision?

Today was my first full day back at work. I tried to go in to work a full day Tuesday, but the pain was unbearable so I left early. Today I worked alone... I manage an apartment complex. It was not a good day. Barely made it through the day. Tomorrow will not be a full day at work as I need to get to urgent care first thing in the morning. Looks as if I have an infection forming from my largest incision. It has not been a fun week. Hoping that next week gets better. Planning lots of rest over Labor Day weekend.

I'm day 5 post op. and today I am feeling more normal. The gas pains are tolerable now. I just have pain at the port site. I got up folded clothes and washed dishes and feel much better. I go back to work tomorrow. We will see how that goes.
