I posted an article in the Research section about new findings with regard to the efficacy of birth control and Plan B for heavy women. It was an article not an opinion piece. And people are fuckeding arguing with ME as though I were taking their candy away. I didn't do the research or write the paper. I swear as much drama as there was on VST, we at least were not over the top for the most part.

I have an antibiotic for the infected incision and the surgeon was not gentle when he was digging around and cleaning it out. I almost cried or screamed or kicked him in the head. He wants to see me again Monday. I told him he had better send me flowers!

i hope this is better now... and alot less painful.

I hope you don't mind, I am just curious about how they recommended you care for the wound. I just had plastic surgery 6 weeks ago with ALOT of incisions. I had to do a daily shower with antibacterial soap and then use a clean qtip to put antibacterial cream on before covering with gauze. Toss the qtip and get a clean one before redipping in the lotion. Every.day for 3 weeks - tedious. One of the risks with plastics is wound infection and with a crapload of incisions, you can be sure I didn't want that. It surprised me when I read that you opened the bandage and saw the infection and made me wonder if they had instructed you to just keep it covered or if you were changing it daily? Doesn't matter, just curious.

If I were feeling more spunky I would go over and argue with the crazies... but just don't have it in me today. dang, I usually kinda enjoy a good fight with the irrational.

Is the app fixed for everyone??

Alex just PMed me to check it out and yay!

When I'm signed in, only vertical sleeve posts under "current"!!

On iPhone app I can only see VST posts in Current, but I'm hoping posts in Research and other cross surgery areas will also appear there.

Until I have posted without freezes, have line spaces showing, can edit, am seeing formatted text rather than code in others posts, and am being notified of "likes" on my posts I'm reserving judgement....

EDIT: post didn't freeze but line space not showing.

EDIT 2: Edit worked seamlessly (at last!)

They just gave me the typical laparoscopic surgery advice. The dressings will come off in a few days. Let us know if there is unusual redness, pain, swelling, or discharge. I've had heaps of laparoscopic procedures (including going through the navel) and never had a problem until this time. I guess it was just a game of percentages.

I have a feeling that things are much different for plastics!

      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.
