Well considering I was horrible pain since surgery 2/19 . Went to ER to have it open, drained and packed 3/1, a wk after I came home. I was on an antibiotic 3x daily for a wk. The antibiotics had to work its course. I jus started feeling better within the last wk or 2. My packing is change twice daily. Its now draining a lil blood and its getting smaller and smaller. The hole require less packing. I know its on the right course finally. Ill be 6 wks post-op tomorrow. I know how u feel. The thoughts going through ur mind. I thought everything imaginable. Me being diabetic I knew it would take longer to heal. Its a slow process but for me its getting better. Now to get my mood together, ill be alright.
