Bleeding from two incision sites two weeks post-op



Recommended Posts

The bleeding isn't severe, and it's not constant. It only started this yesterday (13 days post-op). Did anyone else have this happen? Everything is perfectly fine and then random bleeding? I have a 2 year old, so maybe I've been doing too much with her since the surgery. Let me know is anyone else has had a similar experience.

I had some trouble with my incisions too. Mine was due to an allergic reaction to the bandages. It was pretty nasty. I still have one that is still in the healing process... but the others are all healed. I do think that picking up a 2 year old might cause some of your problems. Just be sure to be careful with the baby. I'm sure you'll be fine, but if you happen to have a F/U apt with your Dr., be sure to let him know.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
