Wound break down

[Suzie Clark 2]

Hi, Newbie to the forum. Had RNY 7th May, 2 weeks post op I went to see surgeon due to a reddening of my incision (long incision open bypass) He said I had Fluid behind it and incisied it. Long story short, it had so much fluid behind it, I now have a negative pressure vaccuum pump attatched for up to 3 months. No infection, just my body over reacted. So annoyed

Sorry to hear about your difficulties.

I'm sorry to hear this.

I know what a hassle this is from past surgeries. This is not a fun process to go through. Stay strong, and remember this too shall pass. I know that's hard right now, being in the middle of it.

I developed an infection to one of my port sites during my stay at the hospital.

I am still draining. dressing changes twice a day.

Positive thoughts sent your way!
