  1. I am 5 1/2 months out from surgery and had a water filled area come up over where my port is. It started draining yellowish to light reddish fluid. Went to the surgeon last week and started antibiotics. Had follow up today. He mentioned that if it were an erosion that my abdomen would be red and look infected. I don't have that. He said that he is one hundred percent sure that I don't have this . He has scheduled me for an EGD in 2 weeks to ease my mind. I have had 2 fills and down 38.5lbs. Still a ways to go.
  2. I know what you are going through. Several weeks ago I had a blisterlike spot come up on my incision site. It then started draing clear yellowish fluid. Sometimes the fluid will be a light reddish color. I went to the doctor last week and was put on antibiotic. Had a follow up today and the surgeon wants to see me in 2 weeks. He is going to check the area (size of a bebe). He has scheduled me for and EGD to r/o erosion. He told me that he is a hundred percent sure that it is not erosion. The surgeon told me that if it were that that I would have a big reddened area that is infected on my abdomen. What does you surgeon tell you? I am about 5 1/2 months out from surgery.:wink_smile:
