  1. Just wanted to let you know I talked to the nurse & they are going to see me on Wed. to "trim" up thr stiches that are coming out!!
  2. I had my band done 2/28. My incisions are healing well. They had steri-strips on them the doc took off, but now some of the stiches that were inside have started to poke through? Has that happened to anyone else? I called the nurse on friday when it was just one & she said just to watch it. Now I have a stich coming out of almost every incision, even my port site? I think I may call the nurse again today? Did this happen to you?
  3. I had my band done at Akron City Hospital, Summa. They did a great job!!!
