  5. So Im 7 days post op and my incisions have been great up until today after I took a shower. One of mine has began to ooze a yellow/red pus. The incision doesnt hurt, its not overly red, and the pus doesnt have a foul oder. Should I be concerned?

  8. Same depressed emotional feelings here. Im one week post op today. NO ONE tells or prepares you for these first few weeks. My guess is some folks who get this surgery are more strong willed than others. I see some who make it look so easy. Makes me mad that im not one of them! :/

  10. I too did not have staples or a drain. I have stitches and steri-strip tape over the incisions.

  19. Really wish I knew symptoms of a leak. Im 5 days out so Im so worried about every little thing. Freaks me out a bit the thought of having to go under again for repair if it did happen. I had complications with anesthesia after surgery :/
  20. Had surgery April 24th
  21. Completely agree. No time for whiners who dont want to follow the rules!
