I was sleeved the 10th and mine look like several day old cat scratches now. I still have glue covering most of them, but the last of it is slowly flaking off.

If yours are weeping at this point, I would definitely call your doctor to be sure there isn't an infection or anything.

If there is inflammation, redness, yellow (pus)!oozing from the incision you should contact your physician. You should have been using the antibiotic ointment when you were discharged to prevent infection at the incision site. You don't want to risk having an infection, considering your recent surgery and the size of antibiotic pills. Call your doctor first thing tomorrow to be safe. Good luck!!

I was sleeved on the 7th and mine are not even scabbed anymore. I just have scars and there is no pain at all. Yellow discharge is cause for a call to the doctor.

I was sleeved 12/4 and 2 of them are healed and glue is gone the other ones the glue is breaking up and starting to fall off. My doc told me if they get redness or start discharging puss like liquid that they are infected to call him.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
